We can't push the patches immediately to mainline because we need to
respect the merge window. You shouldn't need to rely on linux-next for
testing, though, but work directly against Greg's staging tree. Greg,
where's the official tree at, btw? The tree at

  http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/gregkh/gregkh-2.6/

seems empty.
