The backtrace is fixed in the latest master and was really a bug. If you 
like, you can run b4 straight out of the git checkout if you check the 
README.rst for instructions on how to do that.

Unfortunately, the patches do seem to be missing. The good news is that 
only one of them is missing from the LKML list, but the bad news is that 
it's missing from all archives I checked (lkml.org, lkml.iu.edu, etc).  
If you have a local copy of patch 12/15, you can do:

b4 mbox -n out.mbx 20200318204302.693307984@linutronix.de -p lkml
cat patch12.msg >> out.mbx-thread
b4 am 20200318204302.693307984@linutronix.de -m out.mbx-thread

Hope this helps.

Best,
