Ya, it's kind of clunky: we added functions at the same time as the 
refactoring, so there's no good clean tree to apply a patch to.  Right 
now I've actually got this bundled up into a merge, that's usually the 
worst option but it's about as good as I could come up with -- Linus 
still hasn't merged my part 2, so I'm going to send a part 3 once I get 
through the tests on my end.

So we'll see, likely tomorrow, and then I'll deal with the fallout after 
rc1...
