Thanks for this series. However, there are still a number of issues
(I'll reply to the patches independently).

But most importantly, I think it's a topic I would prefer to not have
to handle right now. We are in the middle of a Buildroot Summer Camp,
trying to reduce significantly the backlog of patches, so a 69 patches
series is kind of going against this goal. While this objective is
desirable, it's also not a super high priority, so I would have
preferred to defer this work a bit and concentrate on other topics.

Best regards,

Thomas
