Took the first 4, skipped patch 19 that Adrian asked to be in 6.4 and
then went all the way to:

Applying: perf test: Add cputype testing to perf stat
error: patch failed: tools/perf/tests/shell/stat.sh:91
error: tools/perf/tests/shell/stat.sh: patch does not apply
Patch failed at 0012 perf test: Add cputype testing to perf stat
hint: Use 'git am --show-current-patch=diff' to see the failed patch
When you have resolved this problem, run "git am --continue".
If you prefer to skip this patch, run "git am --skip" instead.
To restore the original branch and stop patching, run "git am --abort".
⬢[acme@...lbox perf-tools-next]$ git am --abort
⬢[acme@...lbox perf-tools-next]$

Will test with it and put what I have in tmp.perf-tools-next, testing
now.
