The reason for me to post two series one for 2.6.30 and other for 2.6.31
was the [Patch 2/2] for 2.6.31 needs more testing. I added this specific
patch in both the series to make sure  we don't miss the change in case
we decided not to make any changes for 2.6.30. Also in my testing I created
different topgit branches with different dependencies. So having [PATCH
1/2 ] in both the series helped in testing with topgit branches.
