Yes, if you look, the staging-next branch starts on Linus's tree as of
April 8 (just after 2.6.34-rc3).  I don't merge back to Linus's tree a
bunch, because that is not how it should be done.  When I am going to
push these to Linus, then I will merge and handle any fixups if needed.

Yes.  And how easy it is to fix up :)

That doesn't explain how you aren't seeing the correct stuff to base
your patches off of though.

Are you _sure_ you have the 'staging-next' branch of the tree checked
out?
