I always make them against the latest -mm kernel, so that would be a
good place to start.  However things change quickly and I can't
promise it will apply against whatever is the 'latest' today.

If you would like to nominate a particular recent kernel, I'll create
a patch set that is guaranteed to apply against that. (Testing is
always appreciated, and well worth that small effort on my part).
