Scratch my previous comment about the other arches, I see you're doing them in
individual patches here. You should probably re-organize the set so that these
definitions are in place prior to the addition of the call sites though (just to
avoid inadvertent build breaks if someone tries to turn AUTO_RESERE on in the
middle of this commit series. And I still think making this a definition in
asm-generic might be worth while, since it seems to be the same or simmilar for
all arches.
