IMHO this patch, as well as patches 2-5, doesn't deserve to be submitted
separately: none of them make sense as a separate change; worse, patches
4 and 5 introduce user API that doesn't do anything without patch 6. All
of the changes are relatively small and singling them out doesn't really
facilitate review, so I'd merge them all in patch 6.
