Hi Arnd, Today's linux-next merge of the asm-generic tree got a conflict in: arch/blackfin/kernel/bfin_ksyms.c between commit: 4d9c7a5907dd ("kbuild: rename built-in.o to built-in.a") from the kbuild tree and commit: e7e57f690e38 ("arch: remove blackfin port") from the asm-generic tree. I fixed it up (I just removed the file) 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. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell
