Probably? I didn't really check too much what the failures were, it's on
patchwork and you can check yourself. I just briefly checked that it
wasn't a false report.

Obviously that would be an issue, and they still don't appear in
wireless-next, which tree do they actually appear in? There's usually
very little to no cross-tree merging going on before it all hits Linus's
tree, but it has to build before that happens, so I don't know how you
expected this to work?
