I'd like to drop a bunch of patches Fedora has been carrying since forever. Most of these are fairly minor tweaks most people forgot we had and nobody cares about. My motivation is both in the spirit of cleaning up and also to better align Fedora + RHEL (I had a talk about this at Flock, video should be up soon).
If someone wants to make an effort at upstreaming any of these, feel free to do so but I really think most of these are cruft.
I think all of these make sense, ultimately if they come up as an issue it probably means there needs to be a discussion upstream to fix it properly there.
It reminds me I've been meaning to do a similar review on some of the long running but minor patches we have here for arm too.

Thanks,
