Hi Luis,

modules-next misses the 3 last patches from Aaron.

Aaron's series as build problems, I sent 4 fixups which allows it to 
build, then I rebased my series on top of that.

And I added on top of it some misc cleanups.

All this has undergone kisskb build test at 
http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/head/d8ee36c58284baf315e8aa3532a8d97abae8026d/
This only build failure (indeed a final link failure) is unrelated to my 
series.

Everything is also available on https://github.com/chleroy/linux.git in 
branch module-v4

Looking forward to getting everything into modules-next hence into 
linux-next.

Christophe
