Hi David, I'm really sorry if I messed up, or is not following the protocol...
But you have applied it already: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next.git/commit/?id=4f58e6dceb0e44ca8f21568ed81e1df24e55964c > commit 4f58e6dceb0e44ca8f21568ed81e1df24e55964c > Author: Allan W.

Anyway, thanks a lot for the big effort you put into maintaining this sub-system. I will be more care full next time to avoid such confusions. Best regards Allan W.
