Sorry for the bug, but I did fix it some weeks OK. Please see this patch:

http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/395725/

I recommend basing on dm/working if you are sending new patches
because code there is generally on its way upstream ahead of your
patch.

I will see if I can start using dm/testing more, as that is really its
intended purpose.

Regards,
Simon
