First stage for me is to go through the rather mechanical process of
merging common code. As much as possible I'm not changing any APIs,
and I don't have enough background on the of_dynamic stuff to make a
call about where it should ultimately live. The goal of the first
stage is simply to eliminate duplicated code. Rename of functions to
of_ is potentially risky, so I'm deferring those changes until after
all the code is merged.
Feel free to make changes on top of what I'm doing. Keep each one
small to reduce the risk of conflict. I'll pick up the ones that make
sense.
Cheers,
g.
