What 3 different purposes?

And you sent a patch series that hit a lot of different subsystems and
maintainers all at once, but you didn't cc: all of us.  Who is supposed
to take these?

But step back, _WHY_ are all of these changes needed?  I don't see a
cover letter explaining the rational, and on their own, they really
don't do anything, so it's really confusing as to what is going on here.

thanks,
