inter_rdt? I know about Inter Mailand ....

What the heck? We do not introduce function prototypes and whatever crap
without an implementation. We add the stuff when we add a function or
implement something which needs a define/struct whatever.

Why does this need an explicit enum initialization?

extern inline?

That's declared static in the source, but sure you do not notice because
intel_rdc.c is not hooked up to the Makefile yet.....

is declared static inline ....

amd more of this crap to follow.

I explicitely asked you last time to do:

And you replied:

Actually you did the reverse. You introduced more crap in the original
patches. See 12/32 vs. the previous version
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=146836100821478

What's the value of mechanically split patches which cannot even compile on
their own? Nothing at all except creating the hell for reviewers.
