I am afraid I forgot the

at the top of the patch in my last resend, so the patch was attributed to me instead of Shawn.

Is it possible to do something about it ? (I fear not since it is now in 'next' but maybe I am wrong.)

Nope, its done and over with.

Don't sweat it.  It was a very short patch, you wrote it apparently
independently from me, so the author line from you is just as valid.

I say its fine as is.  Maybe better.  Your version had an API
doc update.  My version is what triggered the "maybe we should
document the API before we modify it further" discussion.  ;-)
