If you have an existing tree which is based on Linus' tree, you can save
the server and download bandwidth by doing:

git clone --dissociate --reference /path/to/local/copy/of/linus/tree https://git.pengutronix.de/git/pza/linux.git
cd linux
git checkout tags/v4.10-ipu-dp-plane-fix

This will clone your tree, but make use of the objects already present
in /path/to/local/copy/of/linus/tree, making copies of them (so it
doesn't matter if you subsequently get rid of that reference tree.)
