I only see one patch here, which fails to describe the changes and
combines all of the above changes into one commit.

Please follow the usual style for sending patches and do one thing
at a time. In particular, never move large parts of a file code around
in a patch that also contains other changes, those need to be split
up. Each patch should also have a description that explains what
it's for.
