Perhaps we should park all this until 5.8-rc1? As this is a pre-condition for the set_fs removal I'd really like to get the actual changes in. All these conflicts seem to be about the last three cleanup patches just doing renaming, so can we just skip those three for now? Then we can do the rename right after 5.8-rc1 when we have the least chances for conflicts.
