Kirill (and anybody else reading this),

Please stop doing these vXXX.1 patches. b4 can't deal with them. I don't
know if it's _supposed_ to be able to, but I'm not sure I even want
Konstantin spending time on making b4 handle this kind of thing. I
honestly don't want to make my scripts deal with them either.

It's one thing to post a whole new series 2 hours after the old one.
It's a very different thing to resend a series in the 2 *weeks* since
you updated it.

I'd much rather you resend the series than just leave these tangles for
the maintainers to unwind.
