Hmm, apparently the changes I submitted to you on October 2 and 3
(which where pulled by you into the for-3.7/drivers tree) never found 
their way into Linus' tree. (I was not aware of that)

The mentioned patch fixes a regression there. 

Ok, then please ignore this pull request. I will send a new one for
for-3.8/drivers in a few days.

Best,
