What is this based on?
The tip tree master branch.

FYI, you're using a version of git that will (mostly)
automatically generate the based, e.g. I do

  git format-patch --base=HEAD~$nr ...

in my scripts, where $nr is the number of patches I am sending.  My specific
approaches requires HEAD-$nr to be a publicly visible object/commit, but that
should be the case the vast majority of the time anyways.
Are you talking about that you only got a subset of this patch set?
No, I'm saying I don't want to waste a bunch of time tracking down exactly which
commit a 36 patch series is based on.  E.g. I just refreshed tip/master and still
get:

Applying: x86/idtentry: Incorporate definitions/declarations of the FRED external interrupt handler type
error: sha1 information is lacking or useless (arch/x86/include/asm/idtentry.h).
error: could not build fake ancestor
Patch failed at 0024 x86/idtentry: Incorporate definitions/declarations of the FRED external interrupt handler type
hint: Use 'git am --show-current-patch=diff' to see the failed patch
HPA told me he only got patches 0-25/36.

And I got several undeliverable email notifications, saying
"
The following message to [off-list ref] was undeliverable.
The reason for the problem:
5.x.1 - Maximum number of delivery attempts exceeded. [Default] 450-'4.7.25 Client host rejected: cannot find your hostname, [134.134.136.31]'
"

I guess there were some problems with the Intel mail system last night,
probably I should resend this patch set later.
Yes, lore also appears to be missing patches.  I grabbed the mbox off of KVM's
patchwork instance.
