All of Pile1, 2, 3 and 4. :-) One or tow patches are preparations for the real fix but obviously you'll need them too. The rest are enhancements and cleanups. As I wrote before I've structured the patch set in a way to make backporting easy. > For bugfixes, having a detailed explanation of the problem the commit is > meant to fix would be better as well.

The question is, shall I wait for Artem or resend again? Most patches are completely unseen. > Would it help if we test the whole series? (any specific test in mind?) Sure.
