Well I'm been doing the arm/aarch64 kernel maintenance for around 8 years.

In some cases I regularly rebase some patches that are evolving
upstream, if you look at the reverted patches vs the new ones they are
widely different based on upstream as the patches have evolved.

Yes, when there is upstream I usually would, the new way of doing
things is weird, do I do it in the MR, do I have to manually edit
every single patch to add RHEMisms? I do this stuff in my spare time,
this is laborious ATM compared to the old work flow.

There's a newer version of these patches upstream because the
drm-misc-next where some of them have landed had other changes and
they needed a rebase. In the past this was documented in the
kernel.spec.
