As I said last time:  I think someone needs to gather them together and
repost them all as a series.

Realistically maintainers aren't going to go trawling list archives
trying to figure out which patches are necessary/correct/desirable etc.
Someone who has been following this stuff needs to pickup the relevant
patches and post them as a series and champion/babysit/justify that
series, respond to review comments, repost etc.

Upthread I see that the particular patch in question breaks the stubdom
build, so my first review comment is "please don't break stubdom".
