That's up to Greg, but since he'd acked the patches I'd assume he's OK
with taking it through bluetooth. As an option Marcel could cut an
immutable branch off 4.20 with the first 2 patches so that he and Greg
can both pull it into their main branches and then git will do the
right thing when Linus pulls from them. Lee uses quite a bit of them
in MFD and other maintainers are known to occasionally make them for
work that needs to be shared between trees.

Thanks.
