I did notice and resolved it when I merged it into my for-next branch.
And then was kind of annoyed when I noticed it was caused by a patch
from yourself as well, surely that should either have been part of the
series, just ignored for -git, or done after the fact. Kind of pointless
to cause conflicts with your own series right when it needs ready to go
into the for-next tree.
