Sure. I did an unasked-for scripted 'remove_new' removal right after
rc1 for the same reason.

If we have these kinds of big scripted things, right after the merge
window tends to be the best time to do them. The conflict potential of
leaving it hanging in linux-next can be somewhat annoying. They may be
fairly unlikely, and easy to resolve individually, but it's one of
those "one is trivial to deal with, but even just a handful is
annoying".

So I'll run your script and take your commit message, and we'll have
this part over and done with.

Thanks,
            Linus
