There are a couple of places I noticed where you changed types
that aren't related to the specific change this is making.
They are almost certainly fine but I'd either like a specific note
on that in this patch description or just change the elements
that are directly affected by this change.

As below. I'd not touch type of things you don't need to touch.

From the point of view of keeping the patch to what it 'needs'
to touch, should leave type of r1 alone.
I've not looked at whether this causes any problems, just whether
it is relevant to this change.
