Thanks for pointing this out, and sorry for the inconvenience. The Alpine tree isn't very active and I haven't got patches for quite some time. I updated alpine/next to point to v4.16-rc1 to fix the issue. It's not completely dead, but as it's not active you can also remove the alpine/for-next tree from linux-next. And when/if I get patches to merge in the future I'll ask to add it back. As you wish :) Thank you for making linux-next!
