This patch is still pending in patchwork, but the discussion in PATCH
2/2 didn't really reached a conclusion other than the fact that you had
a very specific case of a patch being updated by upstream without being
renamed, and that you were going to talk with upstream about this. We
haven't heard from you about this specific problem since end of April,
and anyway the proposed implementation wasn't matching our requirements.

So I've marked this patch as Rejected in patchwork. Of course, if you
still have the issue, let's reopen the discussion and work on a proper
solution for the problem.

Thanks!

Thomas
