Hi Rusty,

Today's linux-next merge of the modules tree got a conflict in
kernel/modsign_pubkey.c between commit 84ecfd15f554 ("modsign: add symbol
prefix to certificate list") from Linus' tree and commit bb8f5966421d
("MODSIGN: Avoid using .incbin in C source") from the modules tree.
Gah, I had a brainfart reading gitk and thought commit was not upstream
:(

(Paul Mackerras points out that gitk shows you what branches a commit is
in, so I now have no excuse.  He also offered to colour-code it for me
RSN, which would make it inescapable).
I fixed it up (I just used the modules tree version as it removed the
section of code modified by the former) and can carry the fix as
necessary (no action is required).
Yes, but that leaves this turd in linux/kernel.h from
cbdbf2abb7844548a7d7a6a2ae7af6b6fbcea401:

+/* This helps us to avoid #ifdef CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX */
+#ifdef CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX
+#define SYMBOL_PREFIX CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX
+#else
+#define SYMBOL_PREFIX ""
+#endif

I have reverted to the previous modules-next.

Thanks,
Rusty.
