===================
IMPLEMENTING STEP 1
===================

The patches actually posted here are the manual preparation for the UAPI split
in step (1) above.  I haven't posted the patches that do the actual splitting
by email as the largest of them is in excess of 120,000 lines.  However, the
patches are available through GIT:

        http://git.infradead.org/users/dhowells/linux-headers.git

The patches are to be found on the uapi-split branch.  The patches posted here
are from the base of that branch up to the uapi-prep tag; the automated split
follows thereafter to the uapi-post-split tag.

In the uapi-split branch, there are now 44 empty Kbuild files. Was
that intended? Or, should these files rather be removed by your
patches?

Thanks,

Michael
