I don't know.  Signal/ptrace is closely coupled and you would be
reviewing/acking anyway, and linux-next has some test coverage (I
don't know how much but...), so I think it would be least painful to
route these together.  You can create separate topic branches for
signal and ptrace but I don't think that's required.  Anyways, yeah,
if there's no objection, I think it would be best to route these
together with the ptrace changes.  The conflicts wouldn't be trivial
and for a reason.

Thanks.
