Well, at least patch 2 looks like something that should go into 5.15
and be marked for stable.

Patch 1 looks like a trivial local cleanup, and could go in
immediately. Patch 4 might be in that same category.

The rest look like "next merge window" to me, since they are spread
out and neither bugfixes nor tiny localized cleanups (iow renaming
functions, global resulting search-and-replace things).

So my gut feel is that two (maybe three) of these patches should go in
asap, with three (maybe four) be left for 5.16.

IOW, not trat this as a single series.

Hmm?
