Gary is right -- it depends.

Generally speaking, it is best to do changes through each tree;
especially so if it is the kind of thing that may be prone to
conflicts.

In certain cases, yes, I may take treewide changes, with Acked-by's
from maintainers (and very exceptionally I have done it without that
if e.g. it is trivial enough and enough time has passed -- trusting
that people trust me to do so).

It is part of why the Rust tree exists, i.e. as a fallback and also
for convenience in certain cases.

I hope that clarifies.

Cheers,
Miguel
