LKP seems to no longer happy to apply this cleanly without the benchmark 
rework series as the signal handling fix got now a bigger footprint 
(maybe LKP didn't build v3 at all as the changes from v3->v4 were really 
small and I did not get error out of v3).

Shuah, would you want me to reorganize this such that it goes in before 
the benchmark series? In any case, I'll wait until Reinette has had time 
to look at the first patch if I'm to send the series reordered.
