Patch 9 also introduces conflicts with the multi-link code (fix in patch2), so would you mind if we go first with the multi-link code, or defer patch9 for now?We can fix the series required while applying..
It's not an issue with git, it's rather that this series is quite invasive and if you add it first it becomes quite hard to bisect/debug. In terms of risk management, it's safer to isolate contributions by groups and not mix them.
