That's not good though, if you don't intend for them to be automagically
backported to stable trees by Greg, then they shouldn't be tagged at all
and if someone is interested then he can provide a backport.

What will happen with these is that once Greg's scripts process Linus's
tree he'll end up with this patch series inconsistently backported to
stable trees, which is not what you want here.

Sure, we can wait for the "added to the xyz stable tree" mails and
object then, but why risk breaking the trees?
