Everyone who wants to do this, does it like this: 1) You give me the "net" series with the bug fixes. 2) You give me the "net-next" series, and you tell me "this series depends upon the bug fixes going into 'net' from series X, please merge that into 'net-next' before applying this series. And if you're really testing this stuff at all, that's how you're developing and testing it too. You put together the net patch set, you _build_ it and you _test_ it. Then you make a branch on net-next, pull your 'net' stuff into it, and the build your 'net-next' series on that branch. Then you _build_ it and you _test_ it before even thinking about posting it here.
