This should go to the actual patch that makes it work (preparatory patches may
or may not have all above be listed).

As kbuild bot rightfully noted, the series has to be bisectable.

Compile time bisectability means: each patch should compile incrementally.
And run-time bisectability means: the device should work with each patch
applied incrementally.

I.o.w. you have to compile and boot kernel as many times as patches in your
series + 1 (the clean build of the base).
