No. There will be an ancillary tree there doing that, just to override
some gitlab limitations on its public version, but the actual merge at
linuxtv.org "media" tree will be after maintainers check that if the merges 
are OK.

This won't be a normal patch-per-patch review. We'll be mainly looking at 
the merge diffstat, commit authors and such. We'll be triggered by
automatic e-mails sent from linuxtv.org when patches got merged at the
ancillary tree there.

Thanks,
Mauro
