Overall looks good:
Reviewed-by: Luca Ceresoli <luca.ceresoli@bootlin.com>

However the diff is not very readable dues to the code moved around. I
suspect this could have been split in multiple patches: some just moving
code around and no functional changes, others doing the actual work but
without moving around code so the diff is more readable.
