I think you might have misunderstood my earlier comments. This should be
patch 2 in your set. What is patch 8 should be folded into you existing
patch 2 and become patch 3 with the rest of your patches shifted by 1
since you are reordering them.

Otherwise the code itself appears to not have changed anything so it looks
fine to me.
