I will merge patch 1~2 or 1~3 into patch 1. Earlier, I wrote the reason
as below paragraph in cover letter of v1 post. Now it seems not so hard
to tell and understand.

For patch 1~3, I don't merge them because I made them in different
rounds of changing. And splitting them makes me easily describe the
intention and make review easier. I can merge them after v1 reviewing
if anyone thinks they should be merged.
