Re: [PATCH 1/3] x86: unify asm/io.h: IO_SPACE_LIMIT

Hi Jeremy,

I applied patch #1 to tip:x86/cleanups, however, patch #2 and #3 are
identical... did you mean to do something different here?

Furthermore, please provide an actual description (and preferrably an
Impact: line) with your patches. In particular, when unifying code that
is identical between 32 and 64 bits, please specify this in the
description (e.g. "unified functions X and Y which were already
identical between 32 and 64 bits"), so we know why there isn't a
preceeding patch to remove the remaining differences.

Thanks,

-hpa
