Nah, don't worry. I usually prefer that people base their patches on
Linus' tree and an -rc or final v3.x tag.

I got some pushback from the tip folks on including these patches in an
urgent pull request because they're not regression fixes. What I've now
done is stuck them on the queue for v3.18 in 'next'.

Everything applied cleanly apart from "x86/efi: Unexport add_efi_memmap
variable", because of recent changes to move the "noefi" handling code
out of arch/x86.

I fixed up the conflict, but please take a look at the 'next' branch and
see whether your rebased patches look correct.
