My LKML subscription must have died at some point due to mail bounces,
or maybe I dopped it (?), because I'm not seeing the rest of this
patchset for context.

However, unless the rest of the kernel transitions to this, or there
is some other big win that I'm missing, I don't see much of a reason
for this; can you provide some compelling reason for why we should
make this change?  A quick search on "#pragma once" seems to indicate
it is non-standard, so why replace the simple #ifdef/#define solution
for this?
