When you send out a rerolled series, you do not have to show your
past mistakes.  This [v2] is structured as a three patch series
whose first one makes a similar mess as what [v1] did, the second
one and the third one then revert some parts of that earlier mess.

That is not what you want to show your reviewers, and more
importantly, that is not what we want to record in our history.
Rerolling a series is your chance to pretend that you are much
better programmer than you who wrote the [v1] patch.  The review
exchange is to help you do that.  Please take advantage of that.

You may find "git rebase -i" is a useful tool to help you pretend
that you got to the ideal end result without these "I tried this
first, which was wrong in these points, which I correct in a
subsequent step" steps.

Thanks.
