FWIW, your patch 1/2 doesn't seem to have gone through on linux-raid,
although I saw it on lkml.  Probably a different file size limit, as
that's a very large patch.

You might want to break the next submission into smaller parts.  That
might help people review it, too.

Thanks for doing this work!
