Sorry, which branch are we talking about - is it the one I published
for -next initially? If so wouldn't it be simpler to withdraw it and
have Grant integrate the patches in his branch? Since no one depends
on them for now anyway...

I remember rebasing it once some time ago to add Acked-bys, but it
hasn't changed since then.
