FWIW, the audit/next tree's base is old-ish for a reason; it is that
way out of awkwardness and not neglect. Depending on how things go
today/this-weekend there are some audit patches in the queue which
will require a rebase to a much more current point in time (likely a
4.11-rcX tag, which presents its own challenges, but oh well).
