That's really up to you, as a subsystem maintainer, to decide about.
You need to take bugfixes and ask for them to be included in the 3.8,
and new features and other work, for 3.9.

So can you please go over these patches and ensure that none of them are
ok for 3.8, and all are fine for 3.9?

Also, as Mark pointed out, you really need to get your tree(s) into
linux-next, can you work on doing that as well?

thanks,
