The patches applied to 'for-next' branches were not modified, but I have
(wrongly) assumed I need to keep them in the series until they are
eventually merged into master.

So, if I understand correctly, I should have dropped them from the patch
series as soon as they had been queued, and only if they need some
additional work, I can re-add them as incremental updates.

Thanks,
Cristi
