This series includes a total of 27 patches, to align minmax.h of
v5.15.y with v6.17-rc6.

The set consists of 24 commits that directly update minmax.h:
1) 92d23c6e9415 ("overflow, tracing: Define the is_signed_type() macro
   once")

But this isn't in 5.15.y, so how is this syncing things up?

I'm all for this, but I got confused here, at the first commit :)

It's a typo.
It should be 5.10.y and not 5.15.y.

Some of these are also only in newer kernels, which, as you know, is
generally a bad thing (i.e. I can't take patches only for older
kernels.)

I want these changes, as they are great, but can you perhaps provide
patch series for newer kernels first so that I can then take these?

So you'd first like first to align 6.16 with 6.17, then 6.15 with 6.16,
then 6.12 with 6.15, then 6.6 with 6.12, and so on until we eventually
align 5.10 and even 5.4?

Yes please!
