IIRC, 24-rc1 was a different story. Most, if not all patches, had no 
binary diff, etc. This is not the case here.

Point is this patches do unification, but they are not just that, as you 
can see. I am attempting to cleanup headers that appears not to be used, 
 I am effectivelly adding a new feature to x86_64, and so on. I am 
testing everything, all I sent works in my configs, and your testing, 
and point out the configs that breaks is really much appreciated.

And that's because I'm trying to drop headers that are not used anymore. 
Again, getting test for other people but me, helps making sure it's 
correct. I am working on updating the series now, and will send an 
updated version.
