I have a much different version from Linus, with a few thousand patches
added, otherwise how would I be able to queue up stuff to go to Linus
for the next kernel release?  :)

For the staging patches, either use the linux-next tree (which you
should use for all kernel development), or my staging.git tree, and the
staging-next branch on git.kernel.org, which is what gets pulled into
linux-next every week-day.

If you have more questions about this, take a look at
Documentation/development-process/  it should explain how patches move
to Linus and why working against Linus's tree isn't going to get you
very far.

thanks,
