Hi all, Today's linux-next merge of the configfs tree got a conflict in: fs/configfs/symlink.c between commit: e272d4fb74d6 ("configfs: fix a deadlock in configfs_symlink()") from the vfs-fixes tree and commit: 351e5d869e5a ("configfs: fix a deadlock in configfs_symlink()") from the configfs tree. These are slightly different version of the same fix. I fixed it up (I used the former version) 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
