I will take it, but at the moment I'm rather unhappy about the response

If existing platform maintainers can show that moving over to this will
result in a net reduction of code under arch/arm, then that will be good.
What I don't want to see at the moment is arch/arm increasing in size as
a result of any change.  We desperately need to see a reduction for the
next merge window.
It's a chicken and egg... platform maintainers wait for you to take it
and you wait for them to take it :-)

It seems to me that this fits well into the category of "better common
abstractions" that was discussed in the thread initiated by Linus as one
of the ways to improve on the "clutter"...

Cheers,
Ben.
