Ok. I obviously approve of that series whole-heartedly, but I still
didn't want to apply it this way (and with this kind of "mid-rc"
timing).
I was hoping to just leave it for the next merge window, but there are
now two independent problems that that forced COW patch of mine
caused, and a plain revert isn't acceptable either, so I've just
applied that series to my tree despite the garbage timing.
Maybe I'm just making excuses and rationalizing because I wanted that
series anyway, and patches that remove lines in core code make me
happy, but I don't see other great alternatives.
