If it's a regression, the patch should be limited to fixing the bug. As
it stands, this patch series introduces new functionality, and because it
goes through a known broken state with the first patch, it may cause
failures for people if they land in the middle during a bisect. This
doesn't seem like the right approach for -stable.
