Every change in here looks good to me now, so

Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

Two questions though:

1. The patch still conflicts with mine from the asm-generic
tree. Yours is better in multiple ways (cleans up all the
archs, adds the necessary types for ppc and arm), so should
I drop mine now? I guess I can also make my file identical
to yours so independent of who gets in first, there should be
a clean merge?

2. should the asm and powerpc bits go through the arch maintainer
trees? I guess since they are slightly more than an obvious
consolidation, at least an Ack from BenH and Russell would be
appropriate.
