I think we saw exactly the same pattern in an earlier step. If the
patches in this series are split along the type of fix, then these
two and the other patch fall into the same category. Another way to
organize is to split per file boundary, but I think these two paths
are fixed up for different problem in later steps. I think split
along the type of fix makes much more sense, if we can, than split
per file, so I am almost OK with the current organization (probably
with this squashed into that earlier step).
