So I've applied patches 2 (since I wrote the initial file) and 8 (with
Takashi's ack).  The others are also fine, I think, but I hesitate to
apply license texts to files without knowing that they match the
author's intent.  I hate to say it, but I think the best approach is to
send each of the remaining patches to the appropriate maintainers for
the subsystem involved.

Thanks,
