Where I always have lines wrapped at 78 characters, but often when I see
them back in your reply, they're unwrapped and go on forever.

For some reason your mailer reflows text and mucks with whitespace. I
know Outlook likes to do this by default.

Sure, there's local_t usage, but I'd be very surprised if there's a
single refcount usage among them.

Well, if you get to tools (cocci script or whatever) to reliably work
fork atomic_t, then converting the few atomic_long_t's later should be
trivial.
