That tree has the not-for-linus raid6 fix and the not-for-linus i8042 fix.
Then when the authors of those patches go to submit the fix to Linus,
they can revert them, or bk can handle the merge properly :)
How about having two BK trees - one containing "fixes for Linus" and
the other "fixes not for Linus but we really need" ? The "sucker
tree" then becomes the two merged together.
This way, Linus would never see the "fixes not for Linus" at all.
