This is a *very* large change doing a whole bunch of different things,
including some fairly substantial changes like moving things into
different functions but the changelog doesn't provide any details at all
on what the changes are supposed to be.  This makes it difficult to
review, it should be split into separate patches each doing one clerly
described thing (I'm guessing this might be part of why the AllWinner
maintainers haven't reviewed the series).
