But that would not mark the actual file copy (vexpress_common.h is 
almost the same as vexpress_ca9x4.h) as such, right?
So you would end up with a completely new file (_common.h) and
a file with almost all content deleted (_ca9x4.h). The fact that the 
code just moved wouldn't be obvious.
That would be extra pity with the nice -M move features in the previous 
patch.

However I have no problems with merging these two, if you insist.

Regards,
Andre.
