That doesn't matter, the first one to submit a change goes "first",
everything that comes afterward needs to deal with that.  We never tell
someone that a patch isn't ok just because at some time in the future
something else might change.  That drives away developers and was one of
the primary reasons other open source kernels have failed in the past.
