When I look at the code resulting after applying all your 6  patches,
I  see  little  remainings  of the origial code. I wonder if it makes
sense to claim that this is was an evolutionary  change.  Let's  face
the  facts,  it  ain't  so. There is old code, and there is new code,
with some parts in common, but the  other  parts  are  replaced,  not
changed.

You can see this easily from the statistics:

- Your patch series which claims it was evolutionary changes adds to
  1932 lines of patches.
- Diffing just the original and the new version gives a patch of only
  865 lines.
- The old file had 778 lines of code, the new file has 954.

I suggest we no longer attempt to make this look like small  changes,
step  by step. It ain't so. It is one big change which ressults in an
old file being replaced by a new one.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
