So the feedback for this set has been mostly just a few "Acked-by"s,
and it looks like the series was marked as "Not Applicable" in
patchwork.  I was wondering what the correct merge strategy for this
patch set should be going forward?
I marked it as not applicable because it's definitely not a networking
change, and merging it via my tree would be really inappropriate, even
though we need it for some infrastructure we want to build for
networking.

So you have to merge this upstream via a more appropriate path.
I was wondering if I should be looking at breaking up the set and
splitting it over a few different trees, or if I should just hold onto
it and resubmit it when the merge window opens?  My preference would
be to submit it as a single set so I can know all the patches are
present to avoid any possible regressions due to only part of the set
being present.
I don't think you need to split it up.
