This time to make sure I can be easily understood I decided to use two smaller patches & describe each of them with all the details that came to my mind. I also made sure (and described that) that applying only 1/2 won't break anything (we never wan't to break potential bisecting process). I can work on merging (squashing) these 2 patches but then I need to rework commit messages & I'll risk someone will say my description isn't clear enough or my patch is too complex... If there isn't a real problem (and maybe having 2 patches makes following changes more easily) maybe let's stick to this patchset? -- Rafał
