If you squash patches 1 and 2 together and avoid doing things like renaming all the register offset constant names (or, for stuff like fixing up comment syntax and checkpatch nits, do them in a preparatory patch), then it becomes somewhat easier to review, because then you can use git diff --color-moved and can see easily that code has only been moved to the other file without any accidental extra changes. thanks -- PMM
