Hi Stepehen. I have replaced kbuild.git with two next git repositories: kbuild-fixes.git => stuff designated for -linus after -rc1. kbuild-next.git => stuff for next merge window. Everything in the master branch. They are both empty at the moment but I have a few patches that will hit -fixes soon (including MAINTAINERS update reflecting this). The problematic kconfig patches will hit -next when they are redone and have survived a somehow more extensive testing than last round. I would expect you to take both kbuild-fixes and kbuild-next in -next. I do not plan to have a -mm specific tree as I do not work with stuff that far in the future (time does not permit so).
