Applied to master, thanks.

However, I don't know if you had a look at the source code itself. But
it is really truly horrible. I think I had never seen a function taking
34 arguments, so much code WRITTEN ALMOST ENTIRELY IN CAPS and
generally such an atrocity. And I'm used to looking at vendor code in
Linux BSPs, so I'm somewhat used to all sort of atrocities.
