Can the individual patches be applied on their own without causing
issues (warnings/errors) with the build?  If so, they can be applied
separately via their associated subsystem trees.  If not, someone will
have to collect them all and take them via a single tree with Acks
from the other subsystem maintainers.

It's difficult to make that decision for ourselves since you didn't
share all of the patches with all of the maintainers.
