OK, thank you for your confirmation, I plan to scan all architectures
one by one with allmodconfig.

Hmm... if suitable, next, when I focus one of architectures, I also cc
to you, if it can be removed, please let me know in time, so can avoid
sending waste mails to mailing list.

I plan to try one of architectures within arc, hexagon, and metag. I
will begin at 2013-09-20 (or later), if some (or all) of them can be
removed, please let me know, thanks.

Hmm... in fact, I will not say whether the code style is good or bad. I
mainly focus on to try to avoid multiple code styles within one file.

extreme sample: let 'kernel code style' and 'gcc code style' in one file, that will make the code very ugly.

OK, I can understand, and now it seems it can be canceled, since h8300
has been removed.
