Ok, agreed about that part - and some of the patches did improve readability. Also, the 275 lines macros.s is a lot nicer than the 4,200 lines macros.S. Also, I'm not against using workarounds when the benefits are larger than the costs, but I am against *hiding* the fact that these are workarounds and that for some of them there are costs. > I can send you something I have been working on in the background, but have > been holding off > on because of this, in the morning my time. BTW., I have applied most of the series to tip:x86/kbuild already, and will push them out later today after some testing. I didn't apply the final 3 patches as they have dependencies, but applied the basics and fixed up the changelogs. So you can rely on this. Thanks, Ingo
