- patches 7 to 11 fail to build with this error (really a warning, but
    arch/powerpc doesn't allow warnings by default):

Argh ! I have to squash the patch bringing the new functions with the
one using them (patch 12). The result is a big messy patch which is more
difficult to review but that's life.

You don't *have* to squash them.

We like to preserve bisectability, but it's not a 100% hard requirement.

Someone trying to bisect through those patches can always turn off
-Werror with PPC_DISABLE_WERROR. But they probably can just skip them
because they just add new code that's not called yet.

Ok thanks for the note.


So I won't object if you send them as-is.

Good to know. Anyway I think I will at least re-order so that the patch using the new functions immediatly follows the one adding the functions.

Christophe


cheers
