Note that the individual patches are IMO significantly easier to review
through the actual 32-bit => 64-bit variable assignment changes done
in isolation (which sometimes include minor cleanups), while
the Coccinelle semantic patch:
{ a(b,c) => c = a(b) }
which changes both the function signature and the order of terms as
well, is just a single add-on treewide patch.
Is the plan for subsystem maintainers to pick up the relevant patches,
and then do the treewide change one release cycle later?
I'll try to keep the patches in a single tree (tip:x86/msr)
in the hope of not prolonging the pain two cycles - but it's
of course fine for maintainers to pick up the patches too
(most of them are standalone), we'll sort it all out in the end.
Ingo, would you be fine with me posting patch updates just as replies to the
original patch emails? This would speed things up, as I wouldn't need to wait
for more review input of all the patches before sending out new versions.
Sure, that works for me too. I've picked up a couple of -v2 patches
already.
Thanks,
Ingo
