I wasn't aware of the change. However, merge conflicts should not be
"fixed", but mentioned immediately after the patch break line ("---") .
FYI, this merge conflict is a result of commit 4609e1f18e19 ("fs: port
->permission() to pass mnt_idmap").

Patches for the linux-integrity branch should be based on the next-
integrity branch.
