Interesting. I received exactly the same patch from Bjorn Helgaas. Were
the two of you working together, or is this merely a coincedence?

I've applied Bjorn's version, but since the diffstat is *identical*,
I've put both of your s-o-b lines into it.

BTW Lei, what prompted you to write this patch? Was there a bug you
were fixing, or did you just notice the inconsistency and decide to
fix it?

OK

The latter case. Just found it when I reading code.
