Ok, thanks for the info.

I think I've now also come up with a workflow for tracking the dependencies:
I have a depends/xxx branch for each other branch that I need to wait for
getting merged first. When I want to send a pull request, I first check
all the depends/* branches using 'git branch --merged next/xxx |
grep depends' to see what the dependencies are, and 'git branch --merged
torvalds/master | grep depends' to see if they are already merged upstream.
When a dependency is already merged, I can remove its tracking branch
from the arm-soc tree.
