Hi Matthias

Nice to see the vendor involved. That does not happen enough.

Please split these into fixes and new features. They go into different
trees, so splitting them makes it easier for the maintainers.

I would also suggest splitting the patches per subsystem, and send
them to the specific subsystem maintainer. The exception would be when
there is cross subsystem dependencies.
