Hi Justin,

I have applied all the patches from the series which were not present in 
linux-next as of today (in a squashed-together form, no need to have 
separated commits for such cosmetic changes).

I'd suggest that, unless any subsystem maintainer explicitly states 
otherwise, you submit all such similar changes justo to trivial@...nel.org 
(and perhaps CC LKML). I propose this because:

- I believe most maintainers don't care about these changes and don't need 
  to be bothered
- it reduces annoying mail traffic (tens of mails because such 
  nano-change)
- it reduces the trivial tree maintainership load, as I don't have to wait 
  and cross-check which maintainer has applied which bits and which ones 
  were not picked up
