Wei acked the patch at "Thu, 25 Jun 2015 13:58:26 +0100" after the
discussion around the docs which concluded at "Thu, 25 Jun 2015 12:45:49
+0100", IOW I have assumed this Ack to mean he is ok with them going in
with a docs patch to follow.

Hence I have acked them myself and applied.

Please do follow up with the promised doc patch.

Ian.
