This should really be split up and submitted separately. All the subsystems
are constantly changing. Although merging these kinds of changes manually
after eventual conflicts, it's still manual work for the maintainers which
would be avoided by a little bit extra work by the submitter. A maintainer
could get a merge conflict on a 100 lines long hunk because of an 8 lines
long hunk that got upstream on a different route.
