No, this patch conflicted with "arm/arm64: KVM: PSCI: use MPIDR to
identify a target CPU" from your tree.  Both touched
arch/arm/include/asm/kvm_emulate.h and arch/arm64/include/asm/kvm_emulate.h

Yes---note that it doesn't have to be *always* the same person; whatever
works best for you probably works best for me too.  In this case all of
them were written by Marc, it would have been even simpler for you to
just give your Acked-by instead of picking up "arm/arm64: KVM: PSCI: use
MPIDR to identify a target CPU".

Yes, that can still happen.  Conflicts are not bad, only inconsistencies
are.
