To me the firmware API bump is in a gray area, I don't see how it really
fixes anything. I would feel much more comfortable if the patch would
document why the bump is needed in -rc series and why it couldn't wait
for -next. I'm guessing it has somethign to do with the dwell time
corrections, but it's not obvious to me (and others).
