The change is harmless while we're twiddling our thumbs waiting for you to implement the fix "properly." Not having the fix in is a developer burdon because people turn on the DMA API debugger and are going to keep reporting it's complaints here and elsewhere. Get over your Napoleon complex, and let reasonable working fixes get into the tree even if you don't find them optimal. You can always improve them later, "when you get around to it." People put fixes in without my ACK in my areas of expertiece all the time. I got over it a long time ago, it's OK, and not worth stressing out over. Thanks.
