Not always. Sometimes we just pick patches from Mainline, that are developed by
guys not working on ARM platforms. So, either i have to test them or

But people who are working in Linaro or ARM, they can atleast test their patches
against master.

I don't follow any particular order unless there is some dependency
between branches.
