Please add a commit message. I'm sure you explained the issue and your fix somewhere. Not sure if I saw it in the forum or somewhere on github.

Good commit messages serve at least three important purposes:

 - To speed up the reviewing process.
 - To help us write a good release note.
 - To help the future maintainers, say five years into the future, to
   find out why a particular change was made to the code or why a
   specific feature was added.

A good commit message should answer three questions about a patch:

 - Why is it necessary? It may fix a bug, it may add a feature, it may
   improve performance, reliabilty, stability, or just be a change for
   the sake of correctness.
 - How does it address the issue? For short obvious patches this part
   can be omitted, but it should be a high level description of what the
   approach was.
 - What effects does the patch have? (In addition to the obvious ones,
   this may include benchmarks, side effects, etc.)
