Well... I don't apply any patch to the for-next branch itself - that'd
be madness as the branch is re-built from the topic branches and it's
just a convenience for SFR so I don't have to keep on listing out all
the individual branches for him to pull.

Last time I tried to apply it to my misc branch (which was 3.1-rc1 based)
it wouldn't apply.  I've since rebased that branch (for various reasons)
and it now appears to apply cleanly, so I can _only_ _now_ apply it.
