I'd like the all SRU specific details (impact/fix/test and also very
importantly the regression risk added to the bug report to make SRU
review a little easier.  As it stands, it's upstream and the regression
risk is almost negligible, but it's good practice to think about this
and detail it as part of the SRU process.

This fix is from upstream and targeted to a very limited set of devices
and knowing that Alex wrote it I suspect it has been tested on a real
device during the enablement work phase of a Dell project.
