This is fallout from the recent removal of
"selftests/nolibc: drop test chmod_net" from the nolibc tree.
Christian:
You mentioned before that you plan to have this series in
-next for some time. If you only submit it to Linux for 6.7 or later
then you have to, if I understand the process correctly, rebase your
-next branch on Linus' master after 6.6-rc1.
6.6-rc1 should contain the conflicting nolibc changes, so you would need
to resolve the conflict during rebasing.
The patch is intentionally made to be easy to resolve conflicts for,
just delete the line containing "CASE_TEST(chmod_net)".
Everyone:
What is your opinion on that?
Sorry for all the inconvenience this tiny series causes!
