You really should not base development work on linux-next and before I
can include it there you will need to rebase it onto Linus' tree (or some
other tree that does not rebase).  Its OK to test by doing a merge with
linux-next ...

Thanks for the info Stephen. So I suppose if the patchset depended on
things in -next the normal way to do it would be to merge in the
individual trees I needed first?

Yep, but please let the maintainers of those trees know that you expect
their tree to not be rebased.  Or, if if they aren't really dependencies
just conflicts, then leave the other tree out and let me and Linus fix
the conflicts when we merge your tree.
