I guess that was my long winded way of saying once patches hit my
for-next branch I have no intention of rebasing to fix problems.

Now if you automated checker had gone to the base of my
userns-always-map-user-v46 branch where these patches were staged and
complained then I probably would have fixed the problem.

It looks like your checker limits itself to only the last 99 patches in
a branch and my branch has about 130 or so.
