This is automatically extracted out of the linux git tree (using
git-filter-branch), maintaining all the history etc. I intend to keep
this running until such a time as the DTS files are migrated out of
Linux.

For the time being though patches to this tree need to go through the
Linux tree in the normal way.

(also, as the name states it is potentially rebasing, although there
hasn't been an actual need since the early days when I was still getting
things working)
