Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the char-misc tree got a conflict in:

  drivers/misc/eeprom/at25.c

between commit:

  9a626577398c ("nvmem: eeprom: at25: fix FRAM byte_len")

This was my original patch from Nov 8th.

  5b557298d7d0 ("misc: at25: Make driver OF independent again")
  a692fc39bf90 ("misc: at25: Don't copy garbage to the at25->chip in FRAM case")
  58589a75bba9 ("misc: at25: Check proper value of chip length in FRAM case")
  51902c1212fe ("misc: at25: Use at25->chip instead of local chip everywhere in ->probe()")
(and probably more)

These are newer versions and some cleanups from Andy. I was not aware of this work going on. I'm surprised at25 is getting so much attention ;-)

I fixed it up (I just used the latter version) and can carry the fix as
necessary. This is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any
non trivial conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer
when your tree is submitted for merging.  You may also want to consider
cooperating with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any
particularly complex conflicts.

The result from char-misc.current should be used as is and I guess it's
what you have done, thanks!

Agreed - Andy's version is cleaner, and includes my fixes. I've run some quick tests locally and all seems to be working as expected.

Regards,
Ralph
