Thanks Nadia-san.

I tested this patch set on my box. It works well.
I have only one comment.

Hmmm. I suppose this may be side effect which user does not wish.

I would like to recommend there should be a switch which can turn on/off
automatic recomputing.
If user would like to change this value, it should be turned off.
Otherwise, his requrest will be rejected with some messages.

Probably, user can understand easier than this side effect.

Bye.
