Re: how to develop against linux-next

I think the LWN guide you quoted is outdated.   Perhaps (personal
opinion) a better way is to go:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/sfr/linux-next/

get the patch out for each linux-next version and patch against the
particular rcX version in mainline as posted at
http://www.kernel.org/.

Otherwise, the more tedious official way from Steven is here (using
"git fetch", not "git pull" which is used for mainline) as mentioned
here:
