Since I haven't got any feedback on any of these patches, and
mips-linux doesn't build because it assumes the presence of one of the
patches that is pending, here's a mips-specific patch that should have
the same effect, without burdening the global write maintainers with
reviewing the simple yet long and boring patch I'd posted before.
Andreas, ok to install this one, and revert as soon as the patch that
obsoletes it is accepted (modified or not)?
