    Normally the reviews stand even if the series is rebased. You only drop
    them if there were non-trivial changes to the patches, not just because
    of a rebase.

    Ingo acked the x86 changes in the past but there were some functional
    changes to the minimum alignment, so the series had to be reworked and
    the ack not applied.

    If Ingo's conditional ack (no functional changes, just a move) still
    stands over the five x86 patches now, I'm happy to queue them all via
    the arm64 tree. The latest series here:
