yeah - resend any bits not yet in tip/master, and also add Pekka's 
Acked-by line to them where he said they are OK.

Correct. Also mark it v2 perhaps in the announcement.

when there's NACKs and discussion it's (much) easier to pick up a new 
series than picking out the bits from the discussion. That way the 
resubmission might be redundant in a large part, but it's a summary of 
your discussion with Pekka and the result of a consensus. I.e. not 
redundant in terms of a workflow step.
