Hi Thomas.

I'm not one that believe there's much value in acks.
I don't have a card, I didn't test it, so I don't
know that it works.

The code style/readability looks pretty good to me.

These trivialities aren't any kind of blocking issue.

Perhaps David will apply it as is and you could send
a follow up patch later.
