I forgot to add a MAINTAINERS update, so rather than re-sending the 
entire gigantic series just tossed this one out quickly.

My thinking was this would be easier for reviewers to keep the "base" of 
the patch series the same and just apply the fix ups requested and keep 
the other changes that went into hfi1 that need to come into hfi2 separate.

If you would rather have it all in one series I can certainly do that. I 
get it's a boat load of code and want to reduce the pain on reviewers 
where I can. Maybe that's a moot point though.

So I will resubmit just a single series with all of this stuff combined 
into one set of 24 patches. Does that sound good?
