Yes that's right. I can set up a bundle, along with the patman
additions, but actually I have found some problems with patman in the
latest mainline - checkpatch has changed. There are quite a few things
collected now that need fixing - e.g. Doug's fix to stop removing
Reviewed-by: tags.

I will start by getting some patches out and we can take a look. Until
then is it OK to hold off on buildman?
