Please send these 4 to appropriate subsystems

  kthread: remove worker->task self assignment  

Then after the next merge window when trees converge send this one out 

hi, I was hoping one person could merge it with acks from all subsystems

Not how this works.

Ugh, I've seen it before happen.

Look, fine, I'll do a V3 soon, WITH ONLY the subsystem changes, all
separate, all sent over to their respective maintainers, then when all
thathas been merged and there's the next merge window, then whatever, I'll
send then the kthread removal

IMHO this is a massive annoyance though.. because what if one of the
driverfolks doesn't wanna respond to me!?!
