Hi Jon,

See this.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/c622df86-0372-450e-b3dd-ab93cd051d6f@notapiano/

Ignore my point 1. My point 2 still stands. I got busy and forgot to

I'm fine with either one of your patches as long as we define a
"useless link" function and use it in all the places.

Thanks,
Saravana
