I was just going through your patch for giving myself 
a habit of reading patches.

I see here that there are many comments which are necessary
have also been removed.
Jonathan told that some of the names do not explain
much about the how registers are related to the orientation.
So it is necessary for some comments to be there here.

I saw your next patch too, in which you are changing some of the
names for betterment, but again, that doesn't cover everything which
was told by Jonathan.

Here is the link to the patch where Jonathan had given detailed 
description

Just sharing this information so in case if Jonathan agrees with
this then he will not have to explain it all again :)
