Hi Tao, thanks, v3 is almost perfect. The only thing you should do in patch 1 is to cleanup some unused variable declarations. With that fixed you can add my Reviewed-by: Philipp Rudo <prudo@xxxxxxxxxx> to the first three patches. All in all the last patch is fine too. I only think that the 'assert' is too strict and it would be better to replace it by a warning + continue.
