Please ignore this comment.

I use b4 to grab this patchset and applied, and started to check patch
one by one. Then I realize it's all about cleanups which have got
consensus in earlier rounds. Hope it can be merged when other people's
concern is addressed, the whole series looks good to me, I have no
strong concern to them.
