Yes, unfortunately I had to rebase. I noticed that one of the patches were
creating a file that didn't belong to that changeset, creating a file on the
wrong place (at -p2 diff format).

We should be discussing during this kernel cycle about migrating our
development tree to use -git (instead of Mercurial). I hope that this will
avoid to detect such errors so late, and avoid a few conversion issues we
currently have.

Sorry for the mess.
