Yes I think so.

(I was always trying to put pre-requisite patches like these ones at
 the front of any of my series rather than separating them into more
 series, since I thought it is convenient for me to manage them (or
 add new ones when respin), and also easier for reviewers (so people
 don't need to try to find the dependencies).  And since I put them at
 the head, we can easily merge them without rebasing issue when they
 are good while the rest may still need further work.  Hopefully this
 is the right thing to do.)
