Yes, but after some feedback on this patch set, I decided to limit the
scope and only clean up mm.h for now; this is the latest post of the
mm.h patch set:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240312094133.2084996-1-max.kellermann@xxxxxxxxx/
v5 will follow soon (with better explanations after suggestions from
David Hildenbrand).

I have already a branch that cleans up kernel.h, and I'll post it once
my mm.h have been merged. After that, I'll rip out more parts of this
old patch set and resubmit them in more smaller patch sets.

Unfortunately, feedback on the mm.h patch set has been scarce so far,
and it doesn't look like there's enough interest in merging it. But
I'm not giving up yet.
