This is kind of a refactoring.  I grepped for them manually.

As for the motivation itself, I would say

	https://lwn.net/Articles/934679/

Me and the other LKMP mentees are working on doing this to various parts
of the source with the help of Julia, Shuah and Javier.

As mentioned in the commit messages, this refactoring has the advantage
of reducing the number of leaks in case we add new code in the future
introducing new OF stuff.

Thanks

lists and Nishanth replied to that.  So that mail can't be seen here
independently.
