Thanks Dave. Feel free to dig into any of the arch/x86 patches that don't
have Acked-by or Reviewed-by (patches 0016 and up) and grab any that
are in your area of interest into TIP tree.  I'm expecting completion of this
series to take a couple of releases to get everything applied. But it would
be very nice if this patch bomb gets smaller each time.
