James already sent Linus a pull request for this week. So that would put
your series out another week. 22 patches and 400+ insertions. That's a
lot of churn for rc4, and while the changes are indeed fixes and not new
features, the whole thing still looks like a regular merge window driver
update to me.
This series really should have been posted before the 4.15 merge window
opened. However, the first iteration of this series was posted after rc1
was out. I'm terribly sorry, but that's just too late for something this
size.
I queued everything up for 4.16.
