Please reverse this list so that most recent series changes come first
and we don't have to scroll through all the history to get to what has
changed recently.

Also, please Cc me on future changes and I would suggest involving any
subsystem maintainers that this code is optimizing for. Looks like Mark
Brown and Georgi Djakov should be included in this series for awareness
(but it's at v11 already!)
