As Sashiko doesn't yet send positive replies for a series when all it's
patches pass, I'm doing it as a data point for human reviewers.
I plan to use this as leg work for comprehensive CI testing
infrastructure like the one I'm putting in place for pahole, with
coverage analysis that will drive lots more perf test regression tests.
