I tried to reconstruct that. I guess I cannot see yet that Russell took
4793ca4028e4dcdbf2740db50995c9378ded3cf8 because I have no access to
Russell's kernel.org repo and his ftp.arm.linux.org.uk repo currently
barfs for me and Stephen didn't push out a tree newer than 20101011 yet.
4793ca4028e4dc is a regression fix that should go into .36, so this is
OK, isn't it. 77a406da5a5b76445a816d5f043fc9aef4026ff1 is already some
time in Sascha's tree, and so in next. But 4793ca4028e4dc is new and
only these two together conflict.
Stephen, note that Sascha fixed the same conflict already in his tree.
Best regards
Uwe
