Note, this is a patch that is a prepatory cleanup as part of a larger
series of patches that is working on resolving some old driver core
design mistakes. It will build and apply cleanly on top of 6.3-rc2 on
its own, but I'd prefer if I could take it through my driver-core tree
so that the driver core changes can be taken through there for 6.4-rc1.
