Probably a typo?

Which patch is it, BTW?

In any case, if the merge window for 6.13 starts on the upcoming
weekend, which is likely to happen AFAICS, I'll defer applying this
series until 6.13-rc1 is out.

It's larger and it's been changing too often recently for me to catch
up and I'll be much more comfortable if it spends some time in
linux-next before going into the mainline (and not during a merge
window for that matter).
