Tom Rhodes tries to get some time to make some style(9) fixes (his
style-fu is better than mine). After that he is willing to commit the
patches. Feel free to help with the style review.

I don't think we have to mark some modules for icc. Most of the modules
work with icc v7 (and so far everything we tested in a monolithic
kernel) and an icc v8 compiled kernel fails in the FPU detection code,
so v8 isn't recommended ATM.

Bye,
Alexander.
