However, your patch is already in Linus' tree and Greg's problem is
getting his tree (which contains Alan's patch) into Linus' tree.

This is a lot more work for me (and I have limited time) and Alan's patch
still needs to be redone before it is merged into Linus' tree ...

The linus-next tree is not and end unto itself, it is merely a way to see
how things will end up in Linus' tree.
