Maybe you haven't noticed, but your patch series are often difficult to
deal with, they almost always split across functional areas and
maintainers.  Splitting out code to common functions and _then_
updating the callers to make use of it is a common way to deal with
that.  We're in the same functional area here, but it's still
good practice.  Thanks,

Alex
