This patch should come before riskier patches introducing new instructions, to
make eventual reverts and fixes easier.
The rule is generally: sort patches by risk, low risk first, high risk later.
This
means that cleanups, restructuring, refactoring patches always come first -
beyond
making bisection and reverts easier, those make subsequent patches cleaner as
well
and make any bugs in subsequent patches easier to see as well.
Thanks,
Ingo
