I've read through the range-diff and didn't spot anything unexpected there. So this version looks good from my point of view, thanks. And I very much agree that it's nice to split out smaller topics like this. I think it's okay to send patch series that have dozens of commits when most of the commits are trivial. But the changes in the MIDX aren't that and require the reviewer to dive deep. For me this has the result that I need an hour or more on such large patch series to review them. And because I often do not find the time for that I push them onto my pile of shame of stuff that I do want to review. I get though that this isn't always easy, and in any case it's a tradeoff.
