Hi peda,

I am still not decided on this one. I tried to do it with the core files
and didn't find a convincing solution there. Also, the churn is quite
high: git history becomes less usable, likely broken references, it is
not consistent in the kernel anyhow...

So, I decided to work on real issues for now. The pain point for me is
not reached yet. But if it is for you (or someone else), I am open to
look at an subsystem wide solution.

Thanks,

   Wolfram
