Will fix above two.

Coding-style.rst still tells me 80 here:

        The preferred limit on the length of a single line is 80 columns.

        Statements longer than 80 columns should be broken into sensible chunks,
        unless exceeding 80 columns significantly increases readability and does
        not hide information.

Maybe this just changed very recently so even not in mm-unstable?

I'll fix the two line-wrap in this patch anyway, as I figured these two
cases even didn't hit 80..  probably because I used fill-column=75 locally..

But still I'll probably need to figure it out for other spots.  Please help
me to justify.

Hmm if that's the rule, in practise I bet many patches are violating that
rule that we merged and whatever patches I used to read.. but I see now,
I'll break this patch into two.

Personally I'd really still prefer it to be one patch especially when it's
only implemented in x86, then I copy x86+mm maintainers all here and it
explains why it's there.  So please let me know if you think it may still
make sense to keep this patch as-is, or I'll split by default.

Thanks,
