Patches in linux-kselftest fixes branch are the ones I included in my
pull request
I just sent out. linux-next might have some selftest patches that are part of a
series that depend on a sub-system API. Maybe that is what you are seeing
in linux-next.

For example there are ftrace selftest patches in linux-next that
depend on ftrace
sub-system, hence they funnel through ftrace. Same thing happens with mm
related things.

Do you have specific patches in linux-next that you have questions about?
