Thank you, this will help a great deal provided that I find any
more bugs ...

The patch was successfully applied to the latest Mr. Torvalds' tree (commit b6bb9676f216).

It is currently building, which can take up to 90 minutes on our system.

Now the test depends on whether I will be able to setup the machine at work remotely
(there were some firewalls on port 22 recently).

I will keep you updated.

Thanks,
Mirsad
