Hey,

	This lacks a cover letter and the chainig of patches so that b4
can fetch the series.

	Also all 5 patches have the same summary and different
descriptions and contents, can you please rework the patch series, using
'git format-patch', and make the description reflect what each patch is
doing?

Thanks,

- Arnaldo
