nit: u32 is preferred over uint32_t.
      Likewise elsewhere in this patch-set.

Good to know. Can you please shed a light on the reason?
I still see bunch of stdint style uint32_t in arch/x86.

Perhaps there is a document on this that I should know about.
But AFAIK, u32 and so on are Linux kernel types,
while uint32_t are C99-standard types.

Joe, are you able to shed any further light on this?
