Hi Huang,

Yeah, I agree with you. The first 3 patches of the above series are pretty
much the base of this series. We can add patch [3/5]-[5/5] after your 3
patches. Then add the patch [1/5] to include the statistics counters.

Sounds good to me. I would add my reviews within the next couple of days.

Thanks,
Hasan
