I was under the impression that each maintainer constantly rebased their next branches and that was why one has to checkout the tagged linux-next each day instead of just pulling.
Close, but no cigar. The maintainers don't rebase their -next branches, but due to the way linux-next merges 200+ trees on top of current Linus tree, *that* ends up rebasing every day.
