Can I get confirmation from Will and Kees that this v11 is safe to carry
their Signed-off-by?  Are you guys "happy" with this patch?

I think those should be "Co-developed-by:" to more correctly capture
the intent. At this point I think Helen is the primary author. Or at
least, Will and I aren't anymore. :)

At first pass, yes, this patch does what's needed for Chrome OS and
Android, but I'll take a closer look shortly (and I've added David who
has looked at this most recently).

Thanks!
