To follow up on my own message above, I would like to mention that
mixing upstreams makes it much harder to properly track the releases of
the realtime kernels, as I can no longer rely on tags in those
repositories without ignore a list of arbitrary strings (which may grow
over time if someone with push access keeps pushing tags from the other
repository).

It would be really great to get a reply about this.

Best,
David
