Hi Rafael,

The first 9 patches can be applied without any dependency
on the earlier series, but not the last two.

The target of this series is to make freq-table lookup faster
and so most of its patches would make sense only if we
are trying to solve that problem. Otherwise they may not
be required at all.

I hope that you will be replying to the earlier series [1] as well,
to convey the concerns you have with it.

Thanks
