No I meant something like the diff below but maybe even that is too
excessive.

Well, considering that my patchset is changing the behavior of the core
of the memory hotplug I would prefer if it could go first and add new
user on top. But I realize that you are maintaining your series for a
_long_ time so I would completely understand if you wouldn't be
impressed by another rebase...

If you are OK with rebasing and I will help you with that as much as I
can I would be really grateful.
