Considering that you had also attached a debug patch - did it
work without that, i.e. just with the patch that I had handed
you? If so, I'd then finally be in the position to submit this,
putting your Tested-by (and perhaps Reported-by) underneath.

And no, I'm not really concerned about the 32-bit case. The
analogy with the 64-bit code is sufficient to tell that the change
(even if just cosmetic) should also be done to the 32-bit variant.
