Subject: linux-next: manual merge of the net-next tree with the arm-soc tree
Hi all,
Today's linux-next merge of the net-next tree got conflicts in:
arch/arm64/boot/dts/toshiba/tmpv7708-rm-mbrc.dts
arch/arm64/boot/dts/toshiba/tmpv7708.dtsi
between commits:
4fd18fc38757 ("arm64: dts: visconti: Add watchdog support for TMPV7708 SoC")
0109a17564fc ("arm: dts: visconti: Add DT support for Toshiba Visconti5 GPIO driver")
from the arm-soc tree and commit:
ec8a42e73432 ("arm: dts: visconti: Add DT support for Toshiba Visconti5 ethernet controller")
from the net-next 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.This is because the DTS changes are included in net-next. This patch should be merged via the soc tree. I had the same problem before. How is it correct to send a DTS patch? Should I separate into different series? Best regards, Nobuhiro
