Everyone who reviews the networking side will appreciate the full
context of the patch series so they can review the networking part
in proper context.

And if it is decided that these changes should go via my GIT tree

having to do anything more on your part?

I don't see what the resistence is to giving people more information
and allowing more flexibility for integrating and reviewing your
work.
