I really appreciate very much on your work and time on the series.

I've noted down all the review comments, including the test
enhancements (which I'll do in a proper way soon).  I'll avoid
replying to every review comments since all of them are sane.

Note that this series will depend on the chardev fixes ([1] above) in
Paolo's tree. They'll possibly not be needed for compilation, but
might be needed for further tests.  Hope that won't be a big problem.

Thanks again!
