The problem here is that we have two upstreams which have diverged and
you're hopefully merging them into one upstream for the future.
Breaking things up into patches is a pain and it basically means you
have to do a lot of the work a second time.  It sucks for you and I
totally understand that...  :(

We regulary review 100+ patch series so that's not a big deal.

We still have to review a ball of code with it broken up or not broken
up but when it's broken up then I have scripts to strip out much of the
mechanical changes.

Yeah.  That looks fine.
