Today's -next fails building arm64 defconfig as follows:

ERROR: modpost: module drm_cma_helper uses symbol dma_buf_vunmap from
   namespace DMA_BUF, but does not import it.

I added this fix into drm-misc-next. Thanks!

However, I had to import linux-next while doing so. 'Git am' did a
3-way merge, which may result in a conflict when the fix reaches
linux-next again. I also updated the commit description.
You cannot merge linux-next into any tree, sorry.  It rebases every day
(and so do several of the included trees).
No no, don't worry. I meant 'import' as in 'git remote add linux-next'. 
I was actually complaining that the provided fix was not against a DRM tree.

Best regards
Thomas
Your fix patch should be sent to Greg KH and Arnd as the build failure
is introduced in the char-misc tree.
