Thanks!

I've tried to make this patch set as non-invasive as possible, basically
just adding files and making single line changes to existing files
where necessary. I've never seen conflicts when I tried merging
with linux-next/master.

In the beginning, I was thinking about doing one series per file,
adding the asm-generic version in one patch and changing the per-arch
versions to use it in follow-on patches.
Hopefully, the way I'm doing it now turns out to be less time consuming,
as I can add all the generic headers once without impacting any of the
architectures, and the next patches can easily be done in the
arch maintainer tree for all files at once.
