Applied, thanks.  I'll also push out a tag "multi-write" that other
subsystems can pull to start using the new API prior to it hitting
Linus' tree.

As well as implementing the feature for your devices it would be good to
refactor the code so it's implemented inside an internal version of the
function so that things like patch application can be implemented in
terms of this - that way they'll benefit from any work done here.
