I thought it would be harder to swallow but I'm not sure how to really 
split this into working pieces w/o do some artificial steps which
 I will have to validate again to keep the code bisectable. 
What could be naturally factored out is already in separate  patches in this series. 
The patch is maybe bigger because of code moves between files but what has really changes is just bus.c 
Please reconsider.
Thanks
