Whilst I suspect you're using enumerated lists in order to try to make
things clearer, I'm having a really hard time understanding the commit
messages you have in this series. It's actually much better if you
structure them as concise paragraphs explaining:

  - What is the problem that you're fixing?

  - How does that problem manifest?

  - How does the patch fix it?

As far as I can see, this patch just removes a bunch of code with no
explanation as to why it's not required or any problems caused by
keeping it around.
