Oh, I am not sure too. I almost regret I mentioned this cleanup. Just
I was a bit suprised by how many arches do this wrong. See also below.

By 1. A single patch can convert the code to use set_current_blocked()
and block_sigmask().

And probably the patch which adds block_sigmask() should change arch/x86
as well, this makes its purpose immediately clear. IOW, I'd prefer the
patch I sent (with rename). But once again, I won't persist.

I don't think so... this means another series touching arch/* to
make the very minor cleanup.

No, no, no. Matt, please choose the series which _you_ prefer. You
are the author. I am fine either way.

Yes. I think you should resend the whole series in any case. Because
I think our discussion could confuse the maintainers.


Can I ask you to CC them all in 00/XX ? In this case I can reply
to 00 saying that I am going to take the whole series, unless the
maintainer want to do this. Otherwise I should reply per-arch, this
will certainly cause the confusion.

And, Matt, if I take the patch and then we have any sort of conflict,
you will have to help me with the git problems ;) My understanding
of git magic is quite limited.

Oleg.
