I left a bunch of comments in the patches, I hope they are easy to fix 
:-)

Thanks for the changelogs. About 'per patch changelog', it is very 
useful!
Just a suggestion, I think is better to include them in each patch after 
the '---' to simplify the review.

You can use git-notes(1) or you can simply edit the format-patch and add 
the changelog after the 3 dashes, so that they are ignored when the 
patch is applied.

Thanks,
Stefano
