we have for-next which feeds linux-next.
normally for-next is a symbolic ref to ath-next.
but when we issue our last PR to wireless-next before the merge window, after
we are pulled we fast-forward and hard branch for-next.
so from that point our contributions to linux-next stop while we continue to
contribute to ath-next.
when the merge window closes we remove the hard branch and reestablish the
symbolic ref.
