That is my understanding too but was not sure. Wanted to mention that
they should either replace the branch or apply the reverted patch
(incase if they have issues with replacing the branch). Peter, you seem
to have applied the revert. Can you instead start with a fresh branch so
that we can just ignore the first version (and hence skip first revert
patch in this series)?
