Sorry, my brain was all discombobulated last week. :(

Eh, now that I've figured out what all these patches are trying to do
(and figured out what hunks are modifying which functions) this is a lot
clearer to me.  The UUID check should be in the structure verifier, not
the crc verifier, as you point out.

So the more I reread this series the more I think they're ok, though you
might want to fix the things Christoph pointed out on this patch.

(I'll review the repair side of things whenever you get to that.)
