So, how about I put the 89 patches which I want to merge this merge window into a git branch which Dave can develop against? Andrew can pull that branch into mmotm when it's sufficiently settled for his taste. In order for that to look good in Linus' tree, either Dave can send a pull request which includes all of the folio patches, or I can send a pull request early in the merge window (or even before the merge window opens) which includes those 89 patches. That would mean the patches wouldn't have Andrew's sign-off on them, but I could add a R-b from Andrew to all of them if that's the right way to go.
