I haven't looked at that.  This patch was intended to be a very simple 
uncontroversial rearrangement, in preparation for the Xen subarch, and 
to just clean up a corner of the kernel which seems to have gotten a bit 
warty.  Chris just sent me your patches from March which look like they 
cover a lot of the same ground, but I haven't looked at them in detail yet.
