OK, this has had several rounds of review already and we're really starting
to run out of time with it, so my version of this patchset follows.

It is mostly based on your patches, but reordered and with some major
changes.  Compiled only for now, so please let me know if there's any
breakage in it.  [The last patch will not apply without update of the
device list being removed, but generally this is on top of linux-next
material.]

Thanks,
Rafael
