I simply don't have enough time in a day to rebase my rewrite patches on 
top of what Andrew may or may not merge into -mm.  When he merges 
something, that would be different.

I don't think we need to push anything to -mm right now that isn't rc 
material since the rewrite should make it in before the merge window.  If 
there are outstanding fixes that should go into rc (and probably stable 
material as well), those need to be pushed to Andrew immediately.  I 
disagree that I've seen any to date that are immediate fixes.
