Can you move this to the end of the series?  The functional changes
are more likely to be backported, and I think the backport may be a
little easier without the cleanup in the middle.

Since you're touching this anyway, can you update it to the
conventional multi-line comment style:

  /*
   * We could in theory ...
   */

And capitalize "We", add a period at end, and rewrap to fill 78
columns or so?  Same for other comments below.

Can you make a separate patch to replace this entire copyright notice
with the appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier header?
Documentation/process/license-rules.rst has details.
