That's a hard problem, either wait a release cycle for everything to get
merged properly (like should be done in time for 3.15-rc1 now) and then
submit the code, or ask for different maintainers to either allow other
trees to take the patches, put the patches in different trees at the
same time, or have "topic branches" that different maintainers can pull
from.

Care to send me the patches after 3.15-rc1 is out, as there should not
be any dependancy issues then, right?
