Hi Jiri,
Today's linux-next merge of the trivial tree got a conflict in
init/Kconfig between commit b943c460ff8556a193b28e2145b513f8b978e869
("menu: fix embedded menu snafu") from Linus' tree and commit
2622b54dff6e30d114828648e96777739b764063 ("trivial: fix typos/grammar
errors in Kconfig texts") from the trivial tree.
The former moved the text that the latter modified. I fixed it up (see
below) and carry it for a while.
