It applies to -next except for the QEMU script which you rejected. I
can't do anything about that. So I think you may have the
wrong end of the stick here.

The only thing I can think of is that the UPL series depends on
Raymond's bloblist patch [1]. But I was assuming that would be applied
at some point and I didn't want to resend someone else's patch. I
don't have it in the sjg tree either yet, as I was hoping he would
write a test. In fact I would very-much like people to write tests
(and docs if needed) without needing to be asked.

Regards,
Simon
