Then let's get those patches in. IIRC, I asked you to split up the
patch series to be bugfixes and features (or at least reorder the
series so I can split it up that way in my branches). Also, I think
Serge had some comments that may/may not need to be addressed. Could
you please reorder and resend (and Serge can comment as needed on the
resend)?

Thanks,
