It depends -- some may not be able to be picked independently by
different trees because it would break the build.
Even for those series where there are subsets that can be picked
separately, typically in a normal series if I get Cc'd in a single
patch, then I would assume I am supposed to give my Acked-by so that
it gets picked elsewhere. So unless the cover letter says otherwise, I
would expect a series to be applied as a series.
At the end of the day, it is about coordinating and case-by-case.
Cheers,
Miguel
