OK. I was avoiding refactoring everything - my git skills are not great. I'll look at doing that.

I wasn't go to label this for stable as it doesn't really have any real world impact that I know of. I figure the stable team have better things to do then backport minor stuff like this especially with it being in a series. If you feel strongly about it I can add it - though I'd rather only do it once the review is complete given the requests to split patches etc. This series has been way messier then I expected.

For the Fixes tag - I don't have anything to reference with this apart from your email. What would I put in there? If you want to raise a bugzilla I'll happy reference that.
