These patches do implement specific features, like dram init, timer/clk init, etc. They just don't enable them yet as by themselves they are not useful. The patches also maintain bisectability since they don't touch any existing files until the patch 5 and 6 come into play, and the changes in patch 5 keep things compiling just fine. FWIW I believe the split-up Ian has done makes sense. But if you insist I guess we can merge patch 1-6 (the minimum set to get something working) into 1 big patch.
