oh, this really is an RFC. I built x86_64 but haven't built i386 yet.
and the early_printk whitespace patch conflicts with this one. :)
g/nite.

No. That patch doesn't buy us anything and makes it hell
to forward/backward port patches.

I like it... the way some files have main code in i386 and some is x86-64 is
rather ugly.

I know I'm quite late here, but perhaps it should be arch/common? I
remember thinking ages ago the i8259 stuff could be shared between ppc32
and i386 (it was ages ago). And there's possibly other stuff like that.

Hi Tom,
Maybe, but ...
a few people like the "common" idea, but Andi has vetoed it,
so I've dropped it.
