Doesn't apply to -master, -next or tip.  Again, can you please include
which tree and git commit the patches are against in the patch
description?  How is one supposed to know on top of which tree you're
working?  It is in your benefit to make things easier for the prosepct
reviewers.  Trying to guess and apply the patches to different devel
branches and failing isn't productive and frustates your prospect
reviewers who would of course have negative pre-perception going into
the review and this isn't the first time this issue was raised either.
