Just like the other patch what happened is that the check_fixes script
from Stephen was able to resolve this incorrect SHA1 because I have both
the Broadcom STB downstream remote configured as well as upstream and
the script was not yet updated to make sure this was an object that can
be reached in the upstream remotes (yours, Linus...). This should be
corrected now, sorry about that.
