But what does this have to do with _this_ patch?  This:

For instance.  You don't move things to another header or make *ANY*
change to the compilation of umip.c.  So why patch it?

It looks to me like a _fundamentally_ superfluous change.  That hunk
literally *can't* be related to the rest of the patch.

Yes, I really want it.

Please remove all the x86 bits from _this_ patch.  If x86 has a
separate, preexisting problem, please send that patch separately with a
separate changelog and justification.

We'll take a look.
