Coming in again with the good patches I see :D

Apologies for not seeing these patches before, I really need to figure out a
way to keep up with dri-devel outside of patches that are CC'd to me :S (if
you ever need me to review something, you're more then welcome to poke me via
IRC btw)

For patches 1-5, 7-10:
