Can I specify multiple base commits for testing stable backports?

For example

base-commit: v4.9.11, v4.4.50, v3.10.105,...

Yap, similar to those you guys sent when a new branch on k.org has been
tested.

Btw, can we make the format layout this way:

patch

---

<0day bot tags>

---

so that when we send it to lkml, it doesn't interfere with review by
slapping the tags at the beginning of the patch?

Also, should we CC some special mailing list which the 0day bot parses
or lkml is enough?

Cool stuff.
