Thanks for the quick followup revision!

So I've pulled the latest loongarch-next HEAD (commit 
fb575e32bdd27d57b1587227abea8d4ea2eccb71), and did allmodconfig builds 
of ARCH={x86,mips,loongarch}. I used the LoongArch cross-toolchain 
compiled by Arnd and my own Gentoo toolchains (native & crossdev) for 
x86 and mips; no new problem is found.

Diff between this revision and the previous revision I tested (I think 
it's v13) is just removal of the non-reviewed architecture-independent 
EFI changes, which is good, and I believe we now have every commit here 
ready for PR. (In theory, Eric didn't respond to my previous mail to 
approve the signal.h UAPI, but I can confirm that his concerns are fully 
addressed, which involved spelling suggestion and prefixes to the type 
names.)

On the v14 thread, Bagas suggested that the ASCII art in the 
documentation in single-cell table form be replaced with ordinary code 
blocks, which I think is reasonable due to consistency; but we already 
got 2 revisions of this patchset today, and each revision adds 25 mails 
to everyone's inbox, so I think Huacai could just apply the changes, 
collect the Tested-by, and just push to the loongarch-next branch 
instead (and replying here of course).

So, Arnd, do you think we can go ahead and send the PR today or 
tomorrow? I know this batch of modification didn't get included in 
today's linux-next, but there's little substantive change, and Stephen 
didn't mention that there will be no linux-next tomorrow, so the timing 
might still work out. We may want to get the final Acked-by from Ard for 
the now stripped-down Patch 11, though, I'm not entirely sure.
