It seems to go perfectly smooth when I interact with Stephen on these
kinds of situations.

He just says "this broke/conflicts, please fix it", I do exactly that
and we move on.  Rinse, repeat.

And I don't think there is any kind of problem with that.  We have
multiple levels of checks, and we end up catching it %99.999 of
the time before it hits Linus's tree and we fixup whatever slips
through.

Otherwise we could skip the whole -rc thing :-)
