Does this comment take back your previous one:

NOTE: it seems this patch set contains some churn. First you
add in the forked device init, put in a big chunk of code and
then in the *same* patch set delete it again. It's not like
we're dying to see all the development history... can this
be squashed down a bit?

... hence leave the patch-set as it is?
