What these patches are missing is a description of _why_ this is required
in any of the commit messages.  The commit messages seem to be describing
_what_ the change is doing, which is something that can be seen by reading
the patches, but it leaves the question of why this change is necessary
entirely open.

Please update the commit messages on the next patch revision.
