Hi Shuah,
I see that Steven has already sent v2 of this series to Linus, including 
the selftest patches:
https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg1399833.html
https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg1399832.html

And I also noticed (after I came back from vacation) that Steven had 
fixed the #ifdef ugliness I had introduced..

Thanks,
Naveen
