David,

please take your time, there's no need to hurry for the USES+=tk thing.
The old mechanism is going to stay around until all ports are updated,
so... If I were you, I'd take care of everything at once and submit a
single PR. If you do so, please feel free to ping me back and I'll take
care of it.

Best,
