I took the first 100 patches here, but there's a build breakage in the
remaining patches, and I didn't want to take the time to bisect to find
it (different from the one that Dan found).

Please always test build each patch, you can not add warnings (like you
all do in some patches) or break the build (like you do in some patches)
at any point in the series.  You all know better than this.
