    I have added this to linux-next from today.

    Thanks for adding your subsystem tree as a participant of linux-next. As
    you may know, this is not a judgment of your code. The purpose of
    linux-next is for integration testing and to lower the impact of
    conflicts between subsystems in the next merge window.

    You will need to ensure that the patches/commits in your tree/series have
    been:
    * submitted under GPL v2 (or later) and include the Contributor's
    Signed-off-by,
    * posted to the relevant mailing list,
    * reviewed by you (or another maintainer of your subsystem tree),
    * successfully unit tested, and
    * destined for the current or next Linux merge window.

    Basically, this should be just what you would send to Linus (or ask him
    to fetch). It is allowed to be rebased if you deem it necessary.

    Legal Stuff:
    By participating in linux-next, your subsystem tree contributions are
    public and will be included in the linux-next trees. You may be sent
    e-mail messages indicating errors or other issues when the
    patches/commits from your subsystem tree are merged and tested in
    linux-next. These messages may also be cross-posted to the linux-next
    mailing list, the linux-kernel mailing list, etc. The linux-next tree
    project and IBM (my employer) make no warranties regarding the linux-next
    project, the testing procedures, the results, the e-mails, etc. If you
    don't agree to these ground rules, let me know and I'll remove your tree
    from participation in linux-next.
