Does this set of patches *depend* on functionality provided by those, or
just produce conflicts against the other changes?  If it is just
conflicts, then base your tree on Linus and I and (he when it comes to
it) can fix the conflicts as needed (with some hints if you think it is a
good idea i.e. is the conflicts are particularly complex).
