I wish you would send your patches preceded with a [PATCHSET 0/x]
That gives us a short summery and a little background on its motivation.

For example here, what are the problems you encounter, how did you test
it and so on...

Do these actually depend and/or fix your previous "send layout_return ..."
In files layout?

(You can still send all patches by git send-email command line just the same
 just add a [PATCHSET 0/x]-xxx-yyy.txt and it will get sent first, right?)

Thanks
Boaz
