One thing about this work. I compiled it for ARM and Intel. Also this
stuff is tested
by "Fengguang Wu" <fengguang.wu at intel.com> automated build system.

I am not sure if that builds all architectures or not.
I tried to review my patch closely but their can be some minor mistakes.

I thought of adding this in the patch details but forgot at last.

Is their a simple way to compile stuff for all platforms? Sorry i am
not aware of
it :(

I tried to review it very carefully but this situation was a bit tricky :)
Thanks for trying it out.

Following should fix it for you:

@Rafael: Let me add fixups for now, i will send final patch later after others
also review their part.
