This patch does not apply cleanly, not even close...

I tried to match up this patch with something that was in my queue, and
I was not able to find a single patch that this would easily replace.

Please resubmit this series, based on my current dev-queue branch.  I
am dropping this 2 patch series and will await a re-submission.
