I've found it's way easier to test Linux next on regular basis
and report the regressions compared to chasing regressions after
the merge window or tagged kernels. By that time you may have
already multiple regressions to deal with which is always fun.

If you have products running with mainline kernel, maybe set up
automated boot testing for core devices to catch regressions
early?
