Bart, this is really big for the rc6 timeframe.. This might make it if
there is a rc8 this cycle.

I'll grab the two patches marked for stable to for-rc, they look
trivial.

I'm with the DaveM school of thought here that patch series should be
10-15 at most, and have a clear purpose, even if that purpose is just
'assorted one patch fixes'.. If you resend it can you split the series?
