No, I should have written one. Will do it.

Was a Coccinelle script used for any of these conversions? I wonder if
it'd be easier

I see the first set of infrastructure patches for tasklets have
landed in Linus's tree. Good time to send out the ~200 patches?

Most of the time the tasklet is scheduled from an interrupt handler. So
we could get rid of these tasklets by using threaded IRQs.

Hi,
This is the infrastructure changes to prepare the tasklet API for
conversion to passing the tasklet struct as the callback argument instead
of an arbitrary unsigned long. The first patch details why this is useful
(it's the same rationale as the timer_struct changes from a bit ago:
