Please read the netdev FAQ. Patches sent to netdev contain the tree that
the submitter wishes the patches to be applied to.

As a result, I see davem has just picked up the *entire* series which
means that all patches are in net-next now. net-next is immutable.

In any case, IMHO if this kind of fly-by cherry-picking from patch
series is intended, it should be mentioned during review to give a
chance for other maintainers to respond and give feedback. Not all
submitters will know how individual maintainers work. Not all
maintainers know how other maintainers work.
