If you have a suggestion to improve the wording here, I'd like to hear
that. I'd really like to go ahead with this patch set in one way or
another, as it's blocking James's work from being merged. I don't want
to merge a commit message here that you find offensive or just plain
wrong though, so please suggest an improvement.

Ard, do you have any comments please?

Thanks
Laszlo
