I personally like seeing function set operating on one data structure
being put together. To me, I use vi+ctags+cscope to jump to called
funtion easily. When try to get a picture of a data and handling, e.g here
the subsection map and the relevant functions, putting them together is
better to understand code. I am also fine to discard this patch, no
patch has dependency on this one in this series, it's easy to not pick
it if no one like it.
