Thanks for the patch to clean this up. While I agree with the patch, I would appreciate respinning it:
- I should be an "Acked by" rather than a signed off by since I didn't
do anything to generate the patch itself.
As you are the original writer, IMHO you could/should signed-off-by :-) But it was my bad to add your sign without asking you. I'll resubmit the patch later with your acked-by.
I figure that an acked-by is more appropriate than a signed-off-by because, while I approve of the patch, I didn't actually contribute to it directly (I contributed the anti-patch, that is, the code that is being removed... but that already has my signed-off-by on it).
Thanks for your kind summary.
