Yeah. The two trees are doing different things, and both commits are within 
their own scopes - so this conflict is a natural (and as it seems, mostly 
contextual) conflict, not a workflow messup.

If such conflicts become too numerous then it would make sense to first push 
rcu_kfree() interface upstream and propagate all the fixlets via the individual 
maintainer trees.

I don't think that's necessary: so far the fallout appears to be limited, but 
Stephen will (or should :-) tell us if a conflicts become too painful for him.

Thanks,

	Ingo
