Today's linux-next merge of the hwmon-staging tree got a conflict in:

between commit:

from the i2c tree and commit:
d5f80ff774d1 ("MAINTAINERS: add gxp fan controller and documents")
from the hwmon-staging tree.
I fixed it up (see below) 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.

This is now a conflict between the i2c tree and Linus' tree.
I mentioned the potential conflict in my pull request, so Linus should
be aware of it when he applies the i2c changes.
