Yes, apologies. I didn't think this patch series needed an RFC as the
the idea of this patch has been floating around for a while. And because
this patch series is just a respin of earlier efforts. Each patch can be
applied cleanly, but will not compile for different Kconfig options, as
I'm finding out from kbuild test robot. I need to rework this series so
that each patch will compile and maintain bisectability.

You'd think that if I knew to add "RESEND" to my patch, I'd know to add
"RFC". I've been using git for quite some time now, and this is the 2nd
time that called out my "git" skills. Not sure how this oversight and
haste in my part could have been solved by git?
