I'm limited in what I can test, so I can't know for sure that I have something
which works on those architectures. Even powerpc 64 is part of this series but
I can't really test it at this time. Also Cisco's needs out strip the
implementation of extend or override.

I have un-tested conversions for arm32, arm64, c6x, microblaze, nios2, and
openrisc. These could go into -next and we can see who complains. The
implementation on these architectures isn't all uniform.

Ok ..
