I get the impression that a lot of vendors just don't distinguish and
only really care about getting things upstream, especially in the
embedded world many of them realistically expect to be shipping a pile
of out of tree patches to anyone using anything other than mainline
anyway so it's not super clear to them that it's worthwhile.  This goes
back to the converstations about stable and how vendors interact with
that.
