When Linus tags a new kernel version, a branch will be created for that kernel version, e.g. `linux-5.7.y`. If stable releases for that kernel version will cause breakage with DT or configs, which is unlikely but possible, the patches can be added to `linux-5.7.y` to make it work with latest stable of that version.
