Yes, if you want to do kernel development, you always need to work off
of the subsystem tree that you are wanting to contribute to, or off of
linux-next.  Development trees can often be 3 months ahead of Linus's
tree depending on the time of the merge window.

The tree should always be listed in the MAINTAINERS file for what one to
use.
