Hmm, I was hoping that wouldn't be a problem, especially with no conflicts in the merge. I did it because the first commit after the merge in my next tree depends on PCI changes that have already been merged by Linus. Re-basing is an even bigger sin and I felt it better to do a merge than ask for two pulls or add an unbuild-able commit to my next tree. How do you suggest that I resolve this?
