Thanks :) Yeah I'm glad we can use __same_type() (->
__builtin_types_compatible_p()) for functions as well, it simplifies
keeping the prototypes unified a lot.

I'm fine with either your bitmap tree or Arnd's asm-generic tree, so
it was my question which I happily forgot to ask: which of those two
is preferred for the series.
