The ARM folks do this sort of stuff on a regular basis.. Very early on Doug prepares a topic branch with only the big change, NFS folks pull it and then pull your work. Then Doug would send the topic branch to Linus as soon as the merge window opens, then NFS would send theirs. This is alot less work overall than trying to sequence multiple patches over multiple releases..
