Bother^2 ... lkp complained it can't apply this series to any of the
usual upstream targets (linus, tip, linx-next). Digging into that it
seems that "git format-patch" may have generated something that
can't be applied using "git am".

Not sure if I've got something bad in my config, or my git tree.

Will keep digging.
