Well, it is a for-next branch because is pulled by -next. It is listed in:
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/tree/Next/Trees

drm-exynos	git	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/daeinki/drm-exynos.git#exynos-drm/for-next

Integration testing is of course very needed and linux-next is for that but
what should be tested are the patches that are targeted to mainline.

In that case, exynos-drm-next is what should be pulled by linux-next, no the
for-next branch. Linux-next is a simulation of what Torvalds would do next
so problems are found earlier, ideally before the patches land into mainline.
