Please merge x86/urgent into x86/vdso while memories are still fresh - 
fixing up conflicts between our own branches is entirely fine (I'm 
doing it all the time to help the development flow) and it will make 
life easier.

What Linus dislikes most are merges between completely _unrelated_ 
topic branches, especially if they cross maintenance domains.

Thanks,
