Feel free to include them.  But I can also rebase when your patches
landed upstream.  Your choice ;)

take care,

What's the plan here, what are we trying to solve with this series *exactly*?
If Phil sends his cleanups, do we still want/need the modularization here?

For now I'm gonna shuffle these off of my review queue and I assume I'll see a respin/rebase from either you or phil during the 6.2 window, let me know if this is wrong.
