I understand your reasoning to combine it so that if one patch gets
backported then both do, or if one gets reverted both do, but I really
prefer them seperate for similar reasons if there is more than one user.

It was kept seperate due to tty_audit usage.  See my reasoning for patch
6, but I'm willing to negotiate if that merits an exception like the
USER records do.
