The official procedure is to go to the bug report, click on the
edit link next to the proposed patch in the attachment list, and
change the approval_X11R6.8.x pop-up menu from " " to "?". (If
it's already set to something other than blank, it's already been
nominated (?), approved (+), or rejected (-).)
Of course mailing an explanation to release-wranglers as you did
is also good so we understand why the patch was nominated.
(Personally, I'd lean towards the minimal patch for 6.8.2 and the
more aggressive patch for the next release, since it's much clearer
what the minimal patch does and seems to be much less likely to
introduce an unexpected bug this late in the 6.8.2 release cycle.
I'm just one vote though, and would be willing to entertain discussion
of the more invasive patch if someone more familiar with the PCI bus
code than I am wanted to vouch for it's correctness.)
