Nothing is broken in this patch. What is suggested is just a code cleanup.
I did not want to disturb the existing patch set as it is already reviewed
and ready for merging. Anyway I can re-spin with this suggested change.

I need to analyze and see if this is really possible and the extent of
re-usability.
If possible, this might take a while for me before I start
implementing it. Considering
that this patch set is now over 2 months old and consolidations do
happen subsequently
I request you to queue this patch set in its current form (with the
above change if you
deem it necessary to be part of current patch set).
