No, they are not unusual, but - they come _after_ all patches to be pulled 
have been posted (and reviewed) on the list. For exanple, on ARM, they 
have sub-maintainers for various ARM CPUs, those sub-maintainers collect 
patches from contributors for their platforms from the list, and post 
their own patches to the list too. After that they form pull requests with 
patches that have been reviewed on the list and that they (and everyone 
else) are happy about.

This would help yes, thanks. Or - see my idea in an earlier mail in this 
thread.
