My last mail on this series. To make sure the tree stays buildable that second patch to drop support for 'boolean' should only be applied a release or two after the cleanup patch has been applied. Otherwise we're bound to run into fun build errors in linux-next, and even mainline, for quite a few commits, aren't we? One tree still using boolean is all it takes...
