I don't mind the simplification (Andre was already removing the
piggybacking stuff as part of his ITS series). I'm a bit more cautious
about the sync_elrsr stuff, but that's mostly because I've only read the
patch in a superficial way.

But yes, this is probably going to clash, unless we make this part of an
existing series (/me looks at André... ;-)
