Well, patches 2 and 3 are used by patch 4, so not added afterwards (that
would be a bummer indeed). I kept them separate for a purpose: When
backporting fixes, it is often quite annoying when one has to fiddle
these independent parts out of another patch which does something
unrelated. So whenever One wants to backport a patch using
list_first_entry() (in this example), there is a separate commit to
backport which contains the macro and nothing else. No big deal in this
case, though so no objections merging them.

Thanks, Phil
