Hey Masami,

It's been a while since you posted v10. It seems like this series
doesn't apply cleanly anymore. Do you mind rebasing and resubmitting
it again to refresh the series and make it easier for folks to review
and test it?

Also, do I understand correctly that [0] is a dependency of this
series? If yes, please rebase and resubmit that one as well. Not sure
on the status of Josh's patches you have dependency on as well. Can
you please coordinate with him and maybe incorporate them into your
series?

Please also cc Paul McKenney <paulmck@...nel.org> for the future
revisions so he can follow along as well? Thanks!
