Entirely unrelated to this pull request, but since the diffstat made
that "drivers/base/dd.c" file stand out, I tried to look at what the
history of that odd name is.

And it's not obvious to me.

Very strange filename. Should it perhaps be named "device.c" or
"probe.c" or something more descriptive?

Not a huge deal, more of a passing thought inspired by that diffstat.
