No, my comment is just about this patch.

I don't mind converting to new APIs when it's blocking some other
cleanup. But given the age of this code I think it's probably better to
just leave the rest of it as-is, unless someone volunteers to test it.

So yeah I'll just take patches 1-3 of this v2 series, no need to resend.
