Yeah, good question.

Since they are Clippy ones, it should not be a big deal (e.g. we
already had a case of a lint Clippy lingering for a long time due to
timing of merge window etc. in the QR code).

In this case, I didn't see new ones in -next yet when I looked, so it
should be mostly fine I think. It is also why I asked Tamir to re-send
it at the beginning of the cycle, and then a v12 to include a few
newer parts that were missed that landed lately.

So, worst case, they get fixed during the -rcs.

But, yeah, a while ago I proposed to have -rc1 to -rc2 as "treewide
cleanups time" -- it would make this sort of things (that is not fully
automated, but close) easy.

Cheers,
Miguel
