What's a fix is at some level in the eye of the beholder.
Consider Igor's patch removing an unused fw cfg file, is this
a fix? In the past it was maintainer's decision.

This one cleans up test code.

Well I feel bad about it.
It was ready in time, I deferred it because there was so much other
stuff that I did not want it to interfere with.

I was sure it's ok - it's just a test change, I don't really see why we
need to enforce policy for tests, they are not used in production.

Let's make an exception for once?
