Please split this in 5 separate patches for easier review.

Especially as often anyone writing "simplify" means "accidentally break".

So this is directly opposite of what Boris had asked for - originally
there were two patches, which I folded upon his request (and
which he gave his R-b for already). May I ask the two of you to
first settle on a consistent set of expectations to patches like this?

SubmittingPatches section 3 is clear on what is required.

If your commit message is a list of bullet points it's a pretty big hint
that none of the changes are related.
