This patch is the only one introducing these changes additionally,
no other patch content has been changed from v9 and sent for merge.
I should have clarified this in the cover.

This patch may or may not be dropped, courtesy follow-up discussion on
v9 regarding it: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/87jzwfu1wf.fsf@intel.com/

Thanks,
Siddh
