There are indeed relatively more line changes because the related
commits are fixes for different kernel versions, not specifically v6.19
but also v6.15 (type issue), v6.7 (TCP fix), and it required to move a
lot of lines (including a lot of comments) for a theoretically small
fix.  In fact, the last merge window pull was mostly about fixes too
(which were on time for the merge window, but otherwise I would have
sent them as this one).

The other commits are documentation/comment fixes (including another
chunk of moved lines, which appears as kernel code diff), tests fixes or
minor cleanup.  I can postpone these commits but because they don't
directly impact the kernel, I wanted to group all fixes and minor
non-kernel changes together to have a clean PR for the next merge
window.  Please let me know what you prefer.
