Well, gbp-pq doesn't really help creating such an initial patch series
from our current repository. Some logical changes (which belong into a
single patch) are scattered across various commits and merges.
This is work that needs to be done manually.

Keeping the patch series updated in the future, yeah, gbp-pq might help
there.
