Nice work.
IMHO, if you provide above steps for each file for all architecture then
it shows clearly how generic that file is and no one should have any
objection as long as nothing breaks and because of generic percentage
(percentage above 70 % will be better one). And collect acks from
maintainers and send pull request to Linus.
If you also provide complete diff, then it looks much better.
And if you need my help just ping me :-)
Thanks,
