Sorry, this fell between the chairs after you pointed me to it...

I can certainly pick the 3 patches through my tree, but are they fixing
any current regressions, or is it just that we need the first two
patches to land before the 3rd patch?

I also presume the 3rd patch is only needed when paired with the new
ATF?
