Hi Al,
Today's linux-next merge of the signal tree got a conflict in
arch/arm/kernel/process.c between commit 77a3018e38b9 ("Cortex-M3: Add
support for exception handling") from the cortex tree and commit
9e6479930021 ("arm: switch to generic fork/vfork/clone") from the signal
tree.
I fixed it up (I think - see below) and can carry the fix as necessary
(no action is required).
