Yes, I don't see that as a problem (the changes to each sysdep.h file are 
mechanical, you don't actually need to test them on each architecture).  
We have plenty of time before 2.23 to get a better version of this patch 
series, with more than 6 patches, done before it goes on master again once 
there is consensus, if first it's reverted and then, with master in a 
safer state, we take the time to get this series right.
