For this sort of thing, provided that somebody has reviewed the overall approach, and somebody has reviewed each patch at least vaguely, and we've given subsystem maintainers a chance to say "I would prefer to take the patches that apply to the subsystems I care for via my tree", in my view we should default to "take the patches via one tree/pullreq" (in this case that would be one of yours I guess). I suspect most of the time most submaintainers won't care and will be happier not having to actively deal with the change... thanks -- PMM
