Good point :)
The reason these first 2 patches were included in this patchset is because patch 3 depended on patch 1 (particularly due to the modifications to posix_cpu_timers_init_group() which happen to use ACCESS_ONCE after initializing the thread_group_cputimer lock). Likewise patch 2 depended on patch 1. Thus, I included these changes to make applying these patches a bit simpler.
