I may not like them in the end result, but they are perfectly fine for
an intermediate patch that is refactoring things, when coupled with a
followup patch that moves the refactored code into topological order.

Anything we can do to make reviewing easier, even if it requires going
through more commits and more lines of churn to get there, pays off in
the long run.
