From now onward I will be working on your staging-testing tree. 

But then why some of my patches which were based on linux-next were
accepted?

for example today You've accepted 
my patch "Staging: vt6655: Remove explicit NULL comparison using
Coccinelle"

with commit id  4d932504b534584e116b400dd6e7b8ce7deb455c, 

which you can check on 
 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git

This patch was based on linux-next tree.

Please clear my confusion.

Thanks,
Shyam
