IMO: The way to go is enabling RV support in the BPF CI (I'll expand on
this in Puranjay's later mail), and ignore BPF series for the RV
patchwork CI. I think having multiple trees in the RV CI is not worth
the pain...

Sort of related is that I think it could be worthwhile only building
series that had some human interaction (a pair of eyes -- "yes, this
does make sense to build"). Right now we're just building everything,
and we have to pay (money *and* time) for it.

..and then the BPF series would e.g. not be built at the RV PW CI.


(But mostly me thinking out loud! ;-))
