Fair enough. But there was some discussion early on regarding why reading and clearing on startup was a good thing. This showed that we chose to do that and why we don't care. I'll remove it.

I agree that splitting the Get/Clear/and this patch was odd. However, splitting Get/Clear made the discussion on those operations easier IMO.
As a result this did not really belong in either of those patches on their own.
It is also very clearly a do one thing per patch situation.

If this patch was squashed into the other patches yes. But as a patch which does exactly 1 thing "Clear events on driver load" it works IMO. I could just have well put this patch at the very end.
Now that the Get/Clear operations are more settled I'll split this out and squash it as you suggest. Jonathan suggested squashing Get/Clear too but again I really prefer the 1 thing/patch and each of those operations seemed like a good breakdown.
