So I only usually receive patches I've already Acked when a) the bulk
of the set has been merged and I can apply the remaining lingerers, or
b) the whole set is due to be applied through the MFD tree.

Receiving 2 patches of a 22 patch set, which I have already Acked and
that I can't pick is unwelcome noise.
