Approach seems much better then before. However, checkpatch reports:

total: 132 errors, 80 warnings, 1004 lines checked

NOTE: whitespace errors detected, you may wish to use scripts/cleanpatch
or
      scripts/cleanfile

Please clean up and resubmit; with that many style errors, it is
difficult, at least for me, to read the code, much less to find the real
problems.

Thanks,
Guenter
