Sorry, this is a NAK for these patches.

"These changes are not useful by themselves but are split out to make
the patch sizes more manageable."  This is not how we work.  Patches
have to implement specific features, or fix specific bugs.  And they
have to maintain bisectability of the code.

And we need a useful commit message that explains clearly what the
patch is doing, and why.

And we implement the same Developer's Certificate of Origin as used in
Linux, so we need real names and working e-mail addresses in the
Signed-off-by lines - a cursory mentioning that some mysterious "j" or
some "hehopmajieh" authored some code is not sufficient.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
