Hmm, sorry. I'll try to figure out what happened. A lot of this was
done earlier, but I was waiting for acks an also making sure it worked,
and doing lots of iterations of testing. Unfortunately, I only tested
against what was in mainline, not what was in linux-next. I should have
done that too.

I'll download latest linux-next and take a look at the carnage. This is
something that may break builds, but is pretty straight forward that
shouldn't cause anything serious to break at run time.
