I've made a few comments on PATCH 3/6, mainly around bisectability and other questions. However, I wanted to test this patch set, especially to understand better the impact on the System configuration, but the patches no longer apply. Would you mind fixing the few comments, and resending an updated series on top of the latest master? Thanks a lot!
