Hi all, Today's linux-next merge of the net-next tree got a conflict in: drivers/net/can/dev.c between commit: b552766c872f ("can: dev: prevent potential information leak in can_fill_info()") from Linus' tree and commits: 3e77f70e7345 ("can: dev: move driver related infrastructure into separate subdir") 0a042c6ec991 ("can: dev: move netlink related code into seperate file") from the net-next tree. I fixed it up (I removed the file and added the following merge fix patch) 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.
