Fair point: one branch cannot describe a tree with both, so please drop
this one, and sorry for the noise.

The motivation was Sashiko, which used to review against the default
branch of the tree in T:. Since 28 September it skips a default branch
that mainline already contains and uses linux-next instead, which has
both tty-linus and tty-next. That makes the patch unnecessary.

Thanks,
Matthias
