hm. At no point in this patch series does anything actually get added to
these lists, so this patch is presently a no-op.
I'll assume that it will get used later. But it is a bit odd to add
infrastructure in a patch series, then not use it. Why not hold the patch
back and include it in the patch series which actually uses these lists for
something?
