Jones <luke@xxxxxxxxxx> Thank you for your patch. I've applied this now, dropping the second unnecessary chunk manually so there is no need to send out a new version. Thank you for your patch, I've applied this patch to my review-hans branch: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pdx86/platform-drivers-x86.git/log/?h=review-hans Once I've run some tests on this branch the patches there will be added to the platform-drivers-x86/for-next branch and eventually will be included in the pdx86 pull-request to Linus for the next merge-window.
