Ok, I see what happened. :)
I think you may have misunderstood the suggested of splitting things "by
subsystem". Let's take [7] and [8] for instance.
In [7] you update all the samples, regardless of their subsystem affinity and
[8] updates everything under rust/kernel/.
However, the idea was to send a separate patch per maintainers entry / tree,
such that all patches can be picked in the corresponding tree.
For instance, one patch should be everything that goes through driver-core:
auxiliary, PCI (incl. sample), platform (incl. sample), device, devres.
Then you have another patch for only DMA (incl. sample), etc.
Can you please resend accordingly? Ideally, wait for -rc1 to be out, or base
your changes on -next.
