[The approaches being: 1) applying patchseries before testing, and marking
the commit before applying as good or bad for bisect; 2) rebasing
(applying) the patch-series on top of current kernel, and bisecting the
series]

You can try yet another approach, namely rebase v2.6.15..v2.6.18 on top of
your patch-series applied to v2.6.15, and bisect that.
