So... which of the 27 patches n this series is being dropped? It would
also be nice to know what the checkpatch problems were, because all I
can see from checkpatch is one error per patch, an apparent false
positive:

ERROR: Please use git commit description style 'commit <12+ chars of sha1> ("<title line>")' - ie: 'commit 8b41fc4454e3 ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf")'

The commit message says:

> Since commit 8b41fc4454e ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without
> Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf"), MODULE_LICENSE declarations

... which unless I am seeing things is precisely what checkpatch.pl is
asking for. Perhaps it can't handle wrapped lines, but not wrapping a
git commit log line *also* (correctly) elicits a checkpatch error...
