I'd like to see this merged right away, so we can finalize the build environment change in the .24 release rather than having two releases with gradual changes. Linus, I know it's late, but you really should consider to pull this into .24 so we are done with it once and forever. The patchset is straight forward and as far as I can tell Sam really worked out all the corner cases and fixed the review comments so we can be pretty sure that there is not hidden wreckage lurking round the corner. Thanks, tglx
