Somewhere in this series of patches there should be a patch
description that tells us why we're making all these changes.  I don't
know what the motivation for them is and I don't see it spelled out
anywhere.  If/when these patches go into git there needs to be at
least one of the commits whose description records the motivation for
posterity.

Paul.
