Hi Linus,

Just some notes about the current state of some of the merges in
linux-next.

The powerpc tree
(git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc.git#next)
contains a commit that breaks the building of
lib/pSeries-reconfig-notifier-error-inject.c.  I applied a patch to
linux-next to disable CONFIG_PSERIES_RECONFIG_NOTIFIER_ERROR_INJECT.

The virtio tree
(git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux.git#virtio-next)
has a conflict with the net-next tree
(git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next.git#master)
that requires the following extra fix up patch:
diff --git a/drivers/net/virtio_net.c b/drivers/net/virtio_net.c

The tty tree
(git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty.git#tty-next)
contains a new driver (SystemBase Multi-2/PCI) that fails to build for
(at least) the powerpc architecture.  I have applied a patch that
disables the driver (I made CONFIG_SB105X in
drivers/staging/sb105x/Kconfig depend on BROKEN).

The arm-soc tree
(git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc.git#for-next)
(which you will get in pieces) has a merge conflict against the omap_dss2
tree (git://gitorious.org/linux-omap-dss2/linux.git#for-next) that
requires the followin fix up patch:
diff --git a/arch/arm/mach-omap2/common.c b/arch/arm/mach-omap2/common.c

Part of the arm-soc tree also requires the following fixup patch due to a
conflict with the powerpc tree (patch from N, Mugunthan V
[off-list ref]):
diff --git a/arch/arm/mach-omap2/timer.c b/arch/arm/mach-omap2/timer.c

 		return np;
 	}
 
There are also lots of conflicts due to the __dev* annotation removals -
a lot of which are in the driver-core tree
(git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core.git#driver-core-next).
