Tom, it's been over 3 weeks since I posted this, and Simon ack'd v2.
Well, the release is next week. Simon didn't include it in a PR since v2 was posted so I assume he was figuring on waiting until next release for it. Does this really need to come in before the release or can it wait?
No I was just expecting you to pick it up as it is in your queue :-)
Welp, there you go then. pah, sorry, my fault.
No worries, I just grabbed it and will apply when the merge window opens.

Applied to u-boot-dm, thanks!
