In the future, please don't do this. I've just nuked this commit from
kvmarm/next as I rebuilt it, and using such a random commit is
counter-productive. Just stick to an -rc tag from Linus' tree, and
that's it. I'm perfectly happy to deal with the outcome (conflicts and
other funny things).

Ack! No problem, will do.

Do you prefer that people stick to the same -rc base from the start or OK to
roll it over to latest Linus's tree?

Not that I imagine it makes any difference in most cases.

Thanks,

	M.
