Yes, I understand.

There's no reason that removing RSA_ASN1_templates[] needs to be in
the same patch as the pkey change, nor does the MAX_SIGNATURE_SIZE
changes in sign_evm().

Right.  So why couldn't the first patch define read_pub_pkey(), but
only call it from read_pub_key().  Then subsequent patches could call
read_pub_pkey() directly.
