I made that perfectly clear in the cover description. I called it
twice, one of them explicitly stating that this series made these
infrastructure changes because we have pending functionality that
dependents on cross-device copies being supported in a sane manner.

I'll drop it if you want, but then I'll just have to come back after
all the NFS code is merged and do yet more cleanup work.

Cheers,

Dave.
