Actually, all we need is that last bit... Jerry, Xiao, can you try
the attached patch on top for v4.7-rc6 to see if it works in both HPe

Hi Dan,
Somehow the mailinglist dropped the patch attachment and patchwork didn't
pick it up either.
As you have a Tested-by by Jerry and Xiao, can you appliy it to your git so
downstream distros can pick it up?
Thanks a lot,
Johannes
