I have one or two signatures of kernel devs on my GPG key, but I
thought that maybe this set could be pulled by you or Grant once it
has undergone enough testing - it's not like I intend to push

If I understand correctly the reason for having this in its own branch

Will do that, thanks. First of all let me send the relevant patches
again to blackfin and m68k and get some feedback from them, since they
are the most affected.
