I pushed this patch series as is now, but I have two requests:

- Please send a followup patch to remove the unused method.

- When sending patchsets, would you mind to send them with cover letter
  per `git format-patch --cover-letter'?  It's not a hard requirement,
  but it makes discussing single patches vs. patchsets clearer.

Thanks,
Corinna
