In some cases I regularly rebase some patches that are evolving upstream, if you look at the reverted patches vs the new ones they are widely different based on upstream as the patches have evolved. > So pointing to upstream commits is the easiest way to reduce that concern > (at least submaintainer commit ids as those will be the same in Linus's Yes, when there is upstream I usually would, the new way of doing things is weird, do I do it in the MR, do I have to manually edit every single patch to add RHEMisms? I do this stuff in my spare time, this is laborious ATM compared to the old work flow. > Patchwork patches don't have those ids, but I would think they are in an > arm-next branch or something?? There's a newer version of these patches upstream because the drm-misc-next where some of them have landed had other changes and they needed a rebase.
