Do I understand correctly that the whole point of this is to keep
everything compiling nicely while at the same time being able to split
the patches so that you can have an isolated "remove old code" patch
that doesn't have to change the callers?

If so, I think explaining this rationale would be helpful in the commit
message in case we have to go back and track these changes in connection
with a regression and don't remember why we did things this way.

Maybe I'm being over-cautious though...

Otherwise:
