most of the -tip topics (there are 75 of them currently) are present in
linux-next - about ~70% of all -tip commits are in linux-next already.
The stuff that is not in linux-next yet is either because it's:
miscellany fixes (i.e. intentionally grabbed out-of-tree to make our
tests work better), not cooked enough yet, or because we are still
working it out - tip is less than a month old still.

in general the rule is that if there's anything we want to push
upstream, it will show up in linux-next.

hm, which commit is this exactly? I've never hit it myself in bisection
(and there are days when i bisect -tip several times). We'll respin
tip/tracing/mmiotrace if it's bisection-hostile. You can probably nudge
it into building via "git-bisect next".
