Hi Andrew,

Today's linux-next merge of the akpm-current tree got conflicts in:

  arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/32/pgalloc.h
  arch/powerpc/include/asm/nohash/32/pgalloc.h
  arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable-book3s64.c

between commits:

  a95d133c8643 ("powerpc/mm: Move pte_fragment_alloc() to a common location")
  32ea4c149990 ("powerpc/mm: Extend pte_fragment functionality to PPC32")

from the powerpc tree and commit:

  913c2d755b39 ("mm: treewide: remove unused address argument from pte_alloc functions")

from the akpm-current tree.

I fixed it up (see below, plus the extra merge fix patch) 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.

The conflict resolution looks good to me.
