I'm asking for:

- a Reviewed-by or Tested-by from James please, and
- an Acked-by or Reviewed-by from Mike please, and
- a Reviewed-by or Tested-by from Tom please.

Personally I'm not going to verify the details of the conversion of the
mode switch, from the far jump to the far ret, but squinting from a
distance, the patch looks plausible.

Acked-by: Laszlo Ersek <lersek at redhat.com>

Thanks!
Laszlo
