I know that this series has moved on to versions 8 and 9.  And some
additional patches submitted.

Version 8 was a rebase to handle device_link changes.  The version 8
patch 0/7 description of the changes did not note any functional
changes, so I am assuming that my comments on version 7 are still
applicable.

The version 9 changes do not impact my comments.

I am sending review comments on patches 1, 2, and 3.  I will continue
review of patches later in the series when the fall out from these
review comments result in a new series.
