Trying to apply this series on current Git master fails for me.

I'm here:

    $ git describe
    v5.1.15-10-gaa720f5

While applying, the first patch ("init: If "quiet" is found on the
command line, suppress debug output") fails:

    $ git am `git-find-series-in-maildir \
    ~/Mail/RH/libguestfs/cur/1458209606_0.20513.tesla\,U\=1561870\,FMD5\=d735770317fa502b04f5c5707608ec3c\:2\,FS`
    Applying: init: If "quiet" is found on the command line, suppress debug output.
    error: patch failed: init/init.c:71
    error: init/init.c: patch does not apply
    Patch failed at 0001 init: If "quiet" is found on the command line, suppress debug output.
    The copy of the patch that failed is found in:
       /home/kashyapc/tinker-space/supermin/.git/rebase-apply/patch
    When you have resolved this problem, run "git am --continue".
    If you prefer to skip this patch, run "git am --skip" instead.
    To restore the original branch and stop patching, run "git am --abort".

I don't mind applying patche series from list at all for testing, but
just wondering -- have any convenient branch to test?  I quickly checked
on GitHub, but I couldn't your 'supermin' tree there.
