Can you post a v3, rebased on top of our current master branch? No other
changes needed, just a rebase.
I want to discuss this series during the media summit in Lyon and this
one is getting a bit old. Also, the new patchwork is much better at
keeping patch series together, so that makes it handy to link to this
series.
