Yea, I realized after sending it that I didn't checkpatch things and
there's a bunch of style issues to be resolved. I've already fixed up
most of those, and will re-submit next week.

If you have any other feedback (other then white-space/style quirks),
do let me know and I'll also try to add that in.

I know its close to the merge window, and I'm in no rush to get these
in for 3.20, but wanted to send them out for initial thoughts now
because doing this has been on my list since kernel summit and was
finally able to steal a few evening hours to start and hopefully get
some momentum going on it. :)

thanks
