Hello Thomas,

Does that mean that the removal patch will be reverted soon in
asm-generic and linux-next? Both have no ia64 as of now, and there are
already a few patches without ia64 part (e,g,
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic.git/commit/?id=2fd0ebad27bcd4c8fc61c61a98d4283c47054bcf).
Without the revert, patches affecting ia64 will conflict.

I am the person who volunteered to maintain the architecture. If the
removal was indeed cancelled, me and Frank Scheiner can start testing
and reviewing patches affecting ia64.

Thanks,

Tomas
