Yup, I reverted that commit as well.

I actually talked with Greg about it a while back and decided to stop
doing "release candidates" because I never ended up getting any reports
on those. I keep getting lots of feedback on the "Added to the x.y
stable kernel" mails so I rely on those for now.

I'll add that mail to the cover letter I send out when I do those, which
is essentially equivalent (and actually gives more time) if that sounds
ok to you.

Thanks,
