Oh OK, Linus is definitely people.
In that case I'll go for the graveyard+git-notes approach. Thanks for the input!
BTW, I also thought of just forgetting the graveyard thing and just
having checkpatch look directly at the Git notes when run in --git
mode. I thought maybe everyone uses --git mode in practice, but I
checked and b4 doesn't seem to. So it's worth making this work for raw
patches too.
