@Greg, I will take care of backporting the failed batman-adv patches in an 
hour or so. The steps you provide in the mail are always super helpful to stay 
focused and do everything step by step. 

But I've noticed that on a shell with "extended_glob" enabled, the shell tries 
to match the last parameter because it sees the '^' character. Maybe you could 
also quote it too:

-git send-email --to '<stable@vger.kernel.org>' --in-reply-to '2026051520-obnoxious-editor-0139@gregkh' --subject-prefix 'PATCH 6.1.y' HEAD^..
+git send-email --to '<stable@vger.kernel.org>' --in-reply-to '2026051520-obnoxious-editor-0139@gregkh' --subject-prefix 'PATCH 6.1.y' 'HEAD^..'

Btw. I've just disabled it here on my shell. But maybe this is still 
interesting for others

Thanks,
	Sven
