Yeah, these commits are in none of the topic branches that are
the git base of development, they are all already in a separate
branch named "tip:out-of-tree". That separate branch carries
assorted fixlets for various bugs we trigger in -tip qa. It
never goes upstream-wards, obviously. It's a bit like the
fixlets portion of -mm.
