Yes, I'm sorry for the trouble. Linus considered the whole original pull
request too intrusive for rc3 so I've just cherrypicked the easy standalone
fixes and sent a pull request for those. I've now rebased my for_next
branch on top of Linus' tree to get rid of the duplicates (nobody depends
on my tree and there's enough time before the merge window opens so it
should be fine). If there's a better process how to handle such situations,
please tell me.
