Jan, could you resubmit items 2 and 3 as separate patches please? Item 1
on your list has already been fixed in Linus' tree,

commit 886d751a2ea99a160f2d0a472231566d9cb0cf58
Author: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@...cle.com>

    x86, efi: correct precedence of operators in setup_efi_pci
    
    With the current code, the condition in the if() doesn't make much sense due
    precedence of operators.
