Most of the time, you should just resend the series.  Sometimes a
maintainer will take the first few patches and then when they hit one
that can't be merged they'll stop.  So you should try to organize your
patchsets from fixes first, then cleanups and then least controversial
to most controversial.  Except people might be annoyed if it looks like
you're hiding a really controversial one at the end of a long series.
