Yes, it is a problem, sorry.

Automate what? You can just look for the patch files to show up on
kernel.org if you wish to automate testing.

Otherwise, sorry, but creating a git tree of these patches, for the -rc
kernels, doesn't work with the current work flow. I have to have the
ability to remove and add patches and change patches in the middle of
the series of patches before the final kernel release for a variety of
reasons, all of which have come up over the years of doing these stable
kernel releases.

In other words, I don't ever want to rebase.
