I saw your comment only after resubmitting.  I'm fine either way.  If it
is needed for uapi later it can be changed then.  Is it easy to change
in your workflow, or should I resubmit?  I know you routinely change the
patch description, but could not remember if you have actually changed
the patch itself...
