There are a number of commit messages here which say "its a backport
patch". We can see that from the Upstream-Status tag, what the commit
message doesn't say is *why* its safe to remove.

I'm guessing most of these patches have already been applied in the
versions of the software we have but it would be good to reflect that in
the commit messages.

Cheers,

Richard
