Thank you for the series!

When you are reasonably confident that you have done these patches correctly,
feel free to send them to soc@...nel.org so they make it into the
lore.kernel.org
patchwork instance and we pick them up from there.

>From the description, I guess the first four are supposed to be
applied as bugfixes
for v5.7, and the last one is meant as a cleanup and queued for v5.8? Please
indicated in the cover letter what you think should happen with them, then we
can either follow that suggestion or see if anyone disagrees.

For the last patch, I want a better description, as you do not say how you made
sure that nothing else changed that needs to be addressed with a separate
patch. From the diffstat "1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-)", it
sounds like seven options got moved around but did not change behavior,
but three others have either disappeared or also got renamed. I could look
more closely to see what happened exactly, but I'd prefer this to be obvious
from the changelog.
