I'm glad to take this through my char/misc tree, as that's where the
other coresight changes flow through.  So if no one else objects, I will
do so...
Greg, did you end up pulling this after all? If not, Uwe produced a v2.
I haven't merged v2 yet as I don't know what you've done.
I thought you merged this?
I took v1, and put it in a branch I've promised in the past not to
rebase/rewind. Uwe is now asking for me to take a v2 or apply a patch
on top.

The only reason to produce an "immutable" branch is if it's the basis
for some dependent work and you need that branch merged into other
people's trees... so the whole "lets produce a v2" is really odd
workflow... I'm confused about what I should do, and who has to be
informed which option I take.

I'm rather lost here too.
