    This series looks pretty good to me, but I'm not sure about this patch.

    It seems like quite a small divergence in terms of code, and it looks
    like the final result still has some ifdefs in these functions. Maybe
    you could just keep existing behaviour for this cleanup series so it
    does not risk triggering some obscure regression? Merging behaviour
    could be proposed at the end.

    Thanks,
    Nick
