However, what's not clear to me is through which tree this patch should be
sent to Linus? Should the above patch be sent as a v4.15-rc fix or should
Martin perhaps queue it in his tree for v4.16-rc1?  

I have to defer to you guys on that one.  Left to myself, I will just
push it into the next merge window (as opposed to using my normal process,
which at this point would get it into the one following).

So please let me know how you would like to proceed.

Clearly, it needs to go via Martin's tree as otherwise his tree will
not build in some circumstances ... or if it going to cause problems
for Paul, then it should be in a separate non-rebasing branch (probably
of Paul's tree) that is merged into Pauls main branch and Marin's tree.
