Thanks for not doing that.  I admit I hadn't considered this situation
when I put together this workflow.  Having mvebu stuff in linux-next
definitely prevents cherry-picking like above.

For the next window (things seems pretty calm in mvebu-land right now!)
I'll back off on the PRs for normal branches to avoid
commit/merge-tag/commit/merge-tag on your side.

Is there any other reason you might need to cherry-pick something in my
tree?  I can't think of one, and would prefer to keep doing linux-next
if possible.

thx,

Jason.
