I think I've explained this in several replies in this thread now.

Misunderstanding I guess. I thought the required changes had already
been pushed, and we weren't waiting for further changes on this.

I certainly wasn't expecting the generic revid -> stepping rename at
this point, as I don't think they are required for ADL-S at all. I
thought the consensus was that I'll do the refactoring.

Anyway, I can deal with the churn and the rebases, no problem.
