Ok.

BTW it is hard to read big rearrangement patches.  It is made worse
because sometimes they include actual code changes as well.  For
instance this patch wasn't just a rearrangement, it included semantic
differences in file_contents.

I'd prefer to see rearrangements separate from semantic changes.  Then
hopefully I can approve rearrangements without trying to read them in
detail.
