I'm looking through this now, and it seems like you've squashed commits
together, e.g. patch #1 combines commits d0e7a2b6d069 and a8e41f6033a0.

We generally prefer to have one patch per upstream commit, with a
reference to that, so that when we rebase on a new upstream it's easy
to see if a patch can be dropped because it's upstream.  (Though in
this case we know we can drop all those patches when moving to 5.6, and
not before.)

But that would also have made it easier to review any backporting
adjustments you've made.  Anyway, I'll continue to look.

Ben.
