They won't have to if you write in the preamble what the differences from
previous versions are.

The problem with this approach is that the complete patches never make it to
the mailing lists and people have problems with connecting commits to
previously posted patches.

Moreover, it is *much* more convenient to me to take patches from kernel.org
patchwork than from your repos, with all due respect.

Sure, that will work too.
