Yes, indeed, I guess I was a bit tired by that point :-(

However, I am not sure I would ever call an API change trivial i.e. I
wonder what that patch is doing the the trivial tree ...  I guess that
patch is needed as part of the merge of the trivial tree.  Or the
trivial tree should be based on v4.5-rc1 not v4.3 (in which case this
patch belongs as part of ee49ac85bc24b946 (and presumably would have
been found in testing of the trivial tree alone).

I will put your patch into teh merge of the trivial tree today (so it
will disappear from the akpm tree).
