But they are all related and the code becomes uglier if you only prefix one of them. If you don't convert all of them, I will do it anyway as soon as this patch get in.
Since it touches a lot of KVM files, we should synchronize in order to avoid conflicts and gnashing of teeth. What tree is this patch going in? You could provide me a commit SHA1 for this patch (well, its definitive version) based on Linus's tree (so that I can merge it in my tree as well), or I could commit it and provide the SHA1 to the maintainer of said tree.
