Safe when the change is really small (i.e. a few one-liner hunks), always
separate the refactor from the actual code change. It's just damn hard to
spot a small functional change amid tons of code movement, making proper
review impossible.

That's also the reason I'll only ever smash an acked-by on top of a
massive refactor - you can't review that kind of stuff without completely
redoing the patch yourself.
