linux-next: manual merge of the net-next tree with the powerpc tree

Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the net-next tree got a conflict in
drivers/net/ethernet/ibm/iseries_veth.c between commit e92a665949f6
("net: powerpc: remove the legacy iSeries ethernet driver") from the
powerpc tree and commit 41de8d4cff21 ("drivers/net: Remove alloc_etherdev
error messages") from the net-next tree.

I just removed the file.

If it makes life easier for anyone I can put the driver removal patch
into net-next.

In this case, I think it will actually help, thanks.  Note that it won;t
apply cleanly to your tree, but the fixup is easy :-)

And I discovered that "git am" doesn't like the style of patch I did
(without the body of the deleted file).  If you just delete
drivers/net/ethernet/ibm/iseries_veth.c before trying to apply the patch
it will probably work.

I took care of this the other night.
