Hm, why would that imply that they never make to linux-next though?
I always keep multiple topic branches that are queued for upcoming merge
window, and it doesn't really matter whether they came in from pull
request of whether I have created it myself.
And all those branches then merge into for-next, which linux-next is
consuming.
I don't see how the fact that (part of) topic branch came in via pull
request would make any difference ... ?
