Apologies for any confusion.  Let me try to shed some light.

All 4 sets sent thus far have been independent.  There are 5000 issues
to solve in drivers/gpu - I'm trying my best to whittle them down.
We're down to 2200 right now, so it seems to be going well.

I'm aware that some of the patches have been accepted already, so the
plan is to wait a few days, let them settle into -next, then start;
rebasing sets, applying fix-ups and sending out v2s.

FYI: There are also outstanding rebases due for; wireless, net, input
and SCSI, as well as the 4 DRM sets.  I'm getting to all of them.

With regards to how you deal with incorrectness, that's entirely up to
you.  Feel free to either fix-up any issues you see or to provide
review comments and let me deal with it.  Whatever works for you.

A note on copyrights on new files; the new files are copied directly
from old, previously accepted/currently residing ones in order to keep
in-line with what's expected of the subsystem.  If the format has been
updated and/or you would like them modernised, please either fix them
up at your leisure or let me know what's required and I'll rework and
resubmit them.
