I noticed that you applied the first 4 patches in the series (thanks!)
but not this one. Are we waiting to get agreement on this before
landing? As per above, I think it'd be OK to land as-is and then I'm
happy to do a follow-up patch to clean this up since this isn't a new
issue. Having this patch outstanding makes it a little confusing with
the other cleanup patches that I'm posting... ;-)

Thanks!
