I have had a quick look through this series.  To my eye it addresses the
outcome of our discussion over the last couple of weeks, and looks good.  I
had one query regarding patch 5/8, but that might just be a case of me not
knowing about a subtlety of WARN_ONCE().  In any case this isn't a major
issue and would be easily resolved if needed.

Once I get feedback on patch 5/8 (and after seeing any additional comments
from Darren et al) I can send through a reviewed-by.
