For all I know, half of what's in -next is broken and will never be merged. This makes the whole thing untestable. Base your patches on a release tag: ideally an -rc from Linus' tree, or (worse case) a kvmarm tag for patches targeting KVM/arm64. We can easily deal with conflicts at merge time if necessary, and ask you to check that nothing broke in the process. Thanks, M. -- Without deviation from the norm, progress is not possible.
