The "combined" tree is automagically generated by some script on
kernel.org and I have no control over it at all, sorry.  If it's not
working properly, poke the kernel.org admins.

I use the individual kernel trees for all of the "development" of the
stable releases, so you can be sure that those work as they are the ones
needed to generate the release.
