I've applied and/or squashed the previous four and pushed.

I don't have any specific complaints on this one, but checkpatch
throws about 20 warnings. Some of those you might want to deal with
or just ignore. Up to you, but I'll hold off on applying it until I
hear from you.

Also, I'm trying to collect a set of potential reviewers for it:

[cel@bazille even-releases]$ scripts/get_maintainer.pl lib/
Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> (commit_signer:206/523=39%)
"Liam R. Howlett" <Liam.Howlett@xxxxxxxxxx> (commit_signer:89/523=17%,authored:61/523=12%)
Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx> (commit_signer:48/523=9%)
Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> (commit_signer:48/523=9%)
David Gow <davidgow@xxxxxxxxxx> (commit_signer:43/523=8%)
linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (open list)
[cel@bazille even-releases]$

Is that a reasonable set to add as Cc's?
