Sorry for confusing you, hope my just reply [1] explained the 'newlines'
patch, as you pointed out in another reply, perhaps I need to write more
about the deeper 'background' idea of the patch, but sometimes, I'm also
worried about writing too much, for example, some info may be 'obvious'
but I spent too much statements, I will improve as possible as I can,
thanks.

That's right, the patches are split here is just for the last three are
new to our previous discuss, perhaps need more discuss, in the future, I
will propose the ideas before send the patches, just as we did for some
other patches.

Thanks,
