Well, my assumption is that Dave would rather not pull the whole linux-media 
tree in the DRM tree. That's easily prevented when handling pull requests 
through a merge instead of a cherry-pick operation, in that case I can just 
base a patch series on top of -rc1 and send a pull request to both of you. The 
linux-media and DRM tree will merge cleanly in Linus' tree as they will both 
contain the same branch.
