I make a point of following Linus's tree quite closely during the merge process
so that the number of rebuilds is not too large when I do a bisection. For some
reason, the stuff that comes in just before -rc1 seems to have the most
problems. I had 3 regressions from the last two batches of commits. Fortunately,
I only had to bisect two of them, but it was interesting while finding the
third. At every kernel build I had to test whether the patches for the other 2
cases needed to be installed. The 3rd regression and one of the others were from
successive commits! Murphy rules.

When I know of unfixed problems in the wireless-testing tree, I will certainly
continue to post whatever info I have, just as I rely on the members of this
list when I have a problem.
