Sounds good! I can trivially regenerate a new patch series containing
only the still-missing bits without needing to do anything like track
who took things, because nearly all of this is automated anyway.

... at least I can if I can figure out where all the subsystem trees
that people took them into are (not everyone might mention when they
take one). I might miss a few, but I suspect that's not a problem:
taking the same commit by two different routes does not constitute a
conflict, at least on its own.
