Oops.

As I mentioned in a previous mail, this patch has two cosmetic problems:
1. misplaced bracket in commit message "Fixes" tag
2. incorrect second test pattern: I meant to flip all the bits in the
first pattern,
   but I used "!" instead of "~". Any value will work just fine but it
looks weird
   to construct a zero using !MT7621_MEM_TEST_PATTERN.

Should I send a second patch to fix this patch or send a v2 of the
original patch?
