As Maxime mentioned, that should go to core-updates.  It's nice to use
the --subject-prefix option of 'git format-patch' to change it to
"[PATCH core-updates]", so that we don't apply these mistakenly to
master and cause world rebuilds :-)

Another note; only changes of minimally 10 lines are copyrightable, so
you do not need to add a copyright attribution for trivial changes such
as this one.

I've made the change to core-updates and committed as 47fac5dc59; closing.

Thank you!

Maxim
