Hi Pavel, Last patch in the series (patch 20) already does that. That patch just puts all the assembly at one place which everybody shares. I know it is bad to introduce and delete your own code, but I kept that patch as last patch as all the other patches have got fair bit of testing in RHEL kernels and I wanted to make sure that if last patch breaks something problem can be isolated relatively easily.
