Awesome, thanks for testing it so quickly and agreeing to merge it!

There is a dependency that I now have for my y2038 syscall series
of course, so I'd need to have those patches on top of the s390 series.

I think we can either have a shared git branch that gets merged both
into your s390 tree and my y2038 tree, or we merge it only through
my tree, with your Ack.

Does that work for you?
