Usually when you have to enumerate things in a patch, that implies it
needs to be broken up into multiple changes. Why isn't that necessary
here?

meta-comment, lines like this need to be deleted in the future. Not
relevent here, but for future work if you want to add such a cleanup to
a patch series, I'd be grateful.

As Laurent said, this should be a separate patch.

Isn't this already set to 0?
And wait, this is still the bulk endpoint, right? Or am I missing
something?
