I think so. Why isn't this change in mainline? Is it needed in mainline
at all? The diff makes it pretty much impossible to judge that and the
commit message suggests that parts of this change are no longer
applicable upstream. I'd prefer a clean diff that makes it easy to
understand the changes/refactoring.
