Sure, my great plan is to destroy Linux. I work for Microsoft. ;-) Seriously, my plan is to get rid of SUBARCH, that's why I did not push your patches upstream and I've send the rid of SUBARCH patch series. It turned out that other archs depend on SUBARCH too therefore some more thinking is needed. Time passed, merge window closed, $dayjob needed some attention... That said, your "arch/um: make it work with defconfig and x86_64" patch is also not perfect. "make defconfig ARCH=um SUBARCH=x86" will create x86_64 defconfig, which is wrong and breaks existing setups. Secondly, what stops you from running "make defconfig ARCH=um SUBARCH=x86_64" to run your x86_64 bit userspace?
