Not really following this email...
But it seems to me that you're happy with approach 2, so I'll do
the following:
- Get rid of the CONFIG_GENERIC_ENTRY dependency for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL
- Respin the arch additions and cleanups on top of that again
And hopefully we'll have something mergeable at that point. Once we
have this series merged somewhere (would be great if you could carry
it), I'll be talking to arch folks on the rest. Once archs have taken
the necessary bits, I'll be posting the third and final series which
is the cleanups that are currently sitting on top of the arch support.
