You don't even need that - you can decouple that further and there are
good reasons to do so to some extent.

The sooner its in next the sooner its really visible. Whether Russell
pulls your tree for the final merge and resends it on or you do it
directly is fairly irrelevant to the final merge but you maximise
exposure if linux-next is directly pulling your trees and adding them
after the arm tree somewhere. If you get collisions Stephen will just
drop your tree while you fix it. Similarly if you end up with an overlap
where your patches end up in both trees git will figure it out itself.
