Squashing a patch is very easy. If you are refreshing a new series, it
is worthwhile to do it. I notice on the other thread Yosry pointed out
you did not use the function "mem_cgroup_tryget_online" in patch 3,
that is exactly the situation my suggestion is trying to prevent.

If you don't have a strong preference, it sounds like you should squash it.
