Did part of the patch go missing?

This should go near the end of the patch set so that the kernel will
build at each step (if at all possible).

Seeing as what is missing below, naybe you should reorder the patch set
so that the generic changes are at the end i.e. introduce all the new
files and then wire them into the current ifrastructure.

Break long lines at 80 characters.

Missing files?

So I guess it is missing above.
