This is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree is submitted for merging. You may also want to consider cooperating with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly complex conflicts.

Hi Stephen,

Thank you for resolving the merge issue. I am relatively new to this process.. Can you provide a link to where you were notified of the merge conflict?
