Try to sum up the initial problem was patches/series tracking

So far there are 3 proposal
1) PR/MR (GitLab/GitHub style)
2) patchew
3a) shared git repository
3b) links to external git repositories

1) PR surely can trace the status of series and is ready to
   use with small initial setup. Not clear if we would like
   to do reviews with it;
2) similar to patchwork with additional feature but missing
   the state tracking part. Maybe would be not hard to add;
3a) Many disagree as not really git ideal and about
    external contributions;
3b) Does this improve knowing the state of series? Maybe
    for internal developers only.

3a/3b seems quite manual job to do and not much solving
the state tracking (although solve other issues), maybe
some ideas could improve the current procedure.

Maybe would be worth speaking with patchew author if
is easy doable and agree with the change.

IMHO the "closest" (more suitable and easy to implement)
is 1.
