Yes, that's the idea. I also think it's a suboptimal idea to include the version-number-bump patch in a series that's adding some feature, because then if the feature itself has to go through several rounds of patch review the version-number-bump patch is stuck unapplied (we saw that at the end of the 3.1 cycle), or it gets bumped by some other unrelated series and then there's a merge conflict. But that's more of a things-for-next time remark, no need to rearrange this now. thanks -- PMM
