Pulled.

But please cc the kernel mailing list (or something like that) for
these things, so that you get the pr-tracker-bot reply automatically.

Perhaps you don't care about the pr-tracker-bot that much, but even
aside from that, I just like the pulls to be cc'd on the lists, if
only as "documentation".

(Plus since I've gotten used to seeing the pr-tracker-bot
confirmations, I then get antsy and wondering if something is wrong
with the bot when it doesn't respond fully when I push things out,
which is how I noticed this one).
