BTW,

I would break this up into two separate series.

One for the kernel changes [ patches 1-6 ] and then one for the tooling
[ patches 7 - 20 ].

That will make it better for versioning. And you really shouldn't have
the two mixed together. Just state in the cover letter of the tooling 
[ Depends on the series at: ...] 

And include the lore link.

BTW, you may resend a fixed version of 1-6 ;-)
