I'm not merging trees which duplicate the patches in my tree.

This is annoying.  These are spread across three entirely different
branches:
"ARM: 6644/1" is part of the defcfg branch.
"ARM: perf_event" is part of someone elses tree merged into devel-stable.
"mach-ux500:" is "ARM: 6776/1:" and is part of the ux500 branch.

I'm intending sending some of these branches as entirely separate pulls
to Linus - particularly the defconfig and devel-stable branches (so that
Linus can see what code outside arch/arm is being modified by other
people and target his complaints about that more appropriately).

Merging your tree is going to destroy my ability to keep this stuff
strictly separate.

I don't mind merging the ux500 branch into devel-stable provided you're
not going to send any further ux500 patches?
