Hi all,
If you have a tree that is included in linux-next, please clean it up
after it has been merged into your upstream (i.e. Linus' tree in most
cases).

What does "clean up" mean in this context exactly?
thanks,
Takashi

Well, if the tree you had in linux-next is pulled directly into Linus'
tree, then you have nothing to do (except maybe a fast forward back merge
of Linus' tree past the point your tree was merged).
If your tree in linux-next is a merge of other branches that are merged
into Linus' tree separately, then after they are all merged upstream, you
should reset your tree to somewhere in Linus' tree.
If you rebased your tree before sending it to Linus (which you should not
do, of course), and don't update what is in linux-next to match (which
you should also not do :-)), then you should scold your self (:-)) and
reset your tree to be somewhere in Linus' tree.
The intent is to give you somewhere nice and clean to start collecting
your next set of commits for the next release (or bug fixes etc) and to
minimise the conflicts with what is left in linux-next.
