Hi Jesper.

I have looked at the diffstat and the patches and this is a
great improvement in readability of the cris stuff.

It would be good to get this in mainline as fast as possible.
Can I ask you to prepare to git trees to pull from and ask
Linus to pull it.
First tree should be the header move only and if you can
convince him it would be great to take the next two patches
so add them to another tree.

You can add an:
Acked-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@...nborg.org>

on all three patches.
