I'd have to check with Stephen but I think linux-next tests a whole
bunch of archs each round. Anyway, the idea is, just don't get things
upstream before the at least had a chance to go through that little bit
of integration testing .. Is it -that- hard ?

Oh and before you ask me, yes, I do the same mistakes, and I have been
caught too merging things at the last minute that ended up broken and
that could have been caught by -next... I'm just trying to advocate the
idea that we all try to improve in that area :-)

Cheers,
Ben.
