[PATCH 0/4] Avoid PIC and optimize i386 syscalls

[Zack Weinberg]

I'm not the person who has to approve these, I'm only reading 'em out
of curiosity, but, the way you've organized this patch series makes it
difficult to find the interesting changes.  I'm not even clear on how
many there *are*.  It would be better if you separated all of the
mechanical changes -- so for instance you would have one patch that
adds both the generic and the i386 INLINE_SYSCALL_ERROR_RETURN *but
does not use them anywhere*, and then a second patch, which ideally
could be summarized as a sed script, to introduce all the uses.  And
so on.
