I may not have understood you correctly. My understanding is "Linus' current
tree and will go into the drivers branch for that tree." would imply
scsi-queue/drivers-for-3.17.

"drivers branch for next release" would imply be scsi-queue/drivers-for-3.18

So all patches go into drivers-for-3.18, but the ones fixing regressions need a
CC to stable@vger.kernel.org ? Either way, drivers-for-3.18 is fine. Please
apply there
