I'm just a 'regular' developer like you, I cannot apply the patch to
the buildroot repo. Only the maintainer Peter Korsgaard can do that
(or recently the maintainer-ad-interim Thomas Petazzoni)
I think it is best if you submit a new version, to minimize the work
he has to do.

Thanks again for your contributions.

Best regards,
Thomas
