I guess that you have experience with these problems so you probably
know how to handle this the best way.

Anyway, the printk.git stuff is targeting kernel-4.16. I have no
problem to take the document conversion via printk.git tree.
We could do it also the other way. But note that the conflicting
change in printk.git is part of a patchset (8 patches).

Best Regards,
Petr

PS: I will stay out of computers next week, so I probably
won't be able to do anything about this until January 2, 2018.
