The patches look correct to me, but I think is better to defer this
kind of nun-functional refactors to some work actually doing new stuff,
to avoid unneeded noise.

Note that I merged a few other clean-up recently, but e.g. they at
least formally removed some unneeded branch.

Sorry, I'm not going to apply this series.

Cheers,

Paolo
