Yes, I will drop the current patchset in my queue.  I am in the process
of updating my queue, go ahead and make your patches against the
following tree:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/next-queue.git
all-queue branch

If you give me an hour or so, I should have my tree updated with all the
patches in my queue currently.
