These kinds of changes need to be tested.

I don't love this checkpatch warning because it we reject almost all
these patches.  If it were new code, presumably the person sending the
patch would be able to test it...  But I guess it serves as a kind of
lesson to not listen to checkpatch and also to search lore before
sending stuff.
