Others compile linux-next with all sorts of configs, so we hopefully will
see any build failures.  In fact, Greg might even built it with staging
enabled :-)

We will also see any merge conflicts (though there probably won't be
many).

I may also see if I can arrange for a build in each architecture with
staging enabled in my infrastructure here, but it may take a little while.
