Re: linux-next: manual merge of the drm tree with Linus' tree

Stephen,

thanks a lot for addressing that conflict.

Replying top-style on purpose. In the future such type of conflicts should
be resolvable automatically through a git conflict resolution hook that
would use Coccinelle if present when it detects a patch with Coccinelle SmPL
grammar has been used with no required addendums. Such a tool and
further enhancements (automatic SmPL inference, if a patch did not have
the grammar spelled out in the commit log) are documented here:

If you want this tomorrow consider funding Julia's R&D more :D

  Luis

Hi Dave,

Today's linux-next merge of the drm tree got a conflict in:

  drivers/gpu/drm/sti/sti_hqvdp.c

between commit:

  f6e45661f9be ("dma, mm/pat: Rename dma_*_writecombine() to dma_*_wc()")

from Linus' tree and commit:

  52807ae90e76 ("drm/sti: use u32 to store DMA addresses")

from the drm tree.

I fixed it up (see below) 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.
