Oh well, ok, will do next time.

We use it in many places, one could say the kernel isn't written in C
anyway:

[acme@zoo linux]$ find . -name "*.[ch]" | xargs grep '?:' | cut -d'/' -f -2 | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr
    189 ./drivers
     45 ./arch
     33 ./crypto
     30 ./fs
     25 ./net
     23 ./kernel
     22 ./tools
      9 ./sound
      8 ./include
      5 ./security
      5 ./mm
      3 ./block
      2 ./lib
      1 ./scripts
      1 ./ipc
[acme@zoo linux]$

Other than that, are you ok with the change?
