Hah! I only read the first patch, but commented on the second. My bad.
I will send a patch to Dmitry to fix it upstream. Should be fairly
easy. I didn't do it in the first place as I thought ABS/REL values
are refreshed so fast that we don't need any flushing. However, I
obviously missed the slot reports.

Thanks
