Besides the changes posted to the patches, I did more style cleanups and
formatting adjustments as I went through the patches. I'll do some
testing again to be sure there are no bugs introduced by that, but
otherwise the patchset can be considered merged to misc-next. I'll push
the branch today.

It's a lot of new code but I was able to comprehend what's going on,
great that there's the patch adding implementation overview.
As the feature is not on by default and requires "special" hardware, it
should be safe, basisc tests passed so now we're left with the hard bugs
and corner cases. Thanks.
