I split them like this so that each has its own fixes tag and can all be easily
backported (as mentioned in the cover letter). That said, the commits fixed in 2
and 3 both landed in v6.1-rc1, so they could be squashed and still easily
backported. But the commit fixed in patch 4 only landed in v6.4-rc1, so if we
squash them all together, the first two won't be backported to v6.1.

Let me know how you want to proceed.

Thanks,
Nícolas
