Seems like it to me. These won't work without the SET_FS code so I'm OK if you
guys want to keep them all together. Otherwise I think I'd need to wait until
the SET_FS stuff gets merged before taking any of these, which would be a bit
of a headache.

now that we've sorted out a remaining issue base.set_fs should not
be rebased any more, so you could pull it into the riscv tree or a topic
branch.

The first four patch should go into base.set_fs, though. Arnd, can you
re-review the updated patches?

OK, assuming the first four land through vfs I'll take the rest through my
tree. I wasn't sure it was OK to merge another subtree into my tree, as IIRC I
got told not to do something like that before, but I'll go figure out a sane
way to handle it.

Thanks!
