I, also, want to thank you very much for all your work.

I am, however, wondering what will happen to the changes you have that are
currently in linux-next:

Apparently for v2.6.32 (in kbuild-current):

Michael Tokarev (1):
      kbuild: fix bzImage build for x86

And queued for v2.6.33:

Sam Ravnborg (14):
      kbuild: search arch/$ARCH/include before include/
      dontdiff: add generated
      kbuild: move bounds.h to include/generated
      kbuild: move asm-offsets.h to include/generated
      ia64: move nr-irqs.h to include/generated
      arm: move mach-types to include/generated
      sh: move machtypes.h to include/generated
      kbuild: drop include2/ used for O=... builds
      kbuild: do not check for include/asm-$ARCH
      kbuild: drop include/asm
      kbuild: move compile.h to include/generated
      drop explicit include of autoconf.h
      kbuild: move autoconf.h to include/generated
      kbuild: move utsrelease.h to include/generated

I am (for the moment) still merging these from the copy I have of your
trees, but what to do in the longer term?
