I updated the second patch today after I found a corner case that
wasn't addressed by the first version. As I had sent both as a series
a month ago, and neither was in linux-next yet, it seemed more helpful
to send an updated series rather than replace only one of the two.

That's fine then, I did not mean to seem impatient. I assume
the original patches will be in linux-next then, and [v2 2/2]
will conflict. I'll let you review that one first, but can
send a rebased version if you think we should merge it on top.
