At this stage of the cycle (we're already at -rc7) we limit things to
strictly regression fixes, and seems this has been broken for some time,
so I think this will have to wait for v4.2.
After addresing the comments, Maxime should queue this up for arm-soc so
we can get it in early in the v4.2-rc cycle.
