Hi Mario,

I gave these a quick scan without context from a commit message, and didn't
observe anything particularly troubling. Just a couple minor nits regarding
formatting (new lines to keep from going over 80 characters in a couple places
that weren't really necessary).

Please add commit messages to the series that will provide the reviewer and
future readers with the context they need to understand the motivation for the
patch and the intended approach against which to compare the implementation.

Thanks,
