We already have several syscalls queued up for parisc:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/jejb/parisc-2.6.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/misc
So if you could make this patch over them (or over linux-next), that
would help the merge process.
I will take a look. I was rather pleasantly surprised that no other
system call conflicts had shown up before now.
This is unfortunately one of those areas where it is almost impossible
to avoid conflicts.
Do you know if there is any chance that the parisc tree might get
rebased or anything horrible like that?
It shouldn't unless one of the wire ups is wrong and I have to replace
it, but I think the possibility of that will be minute.
If not I think I will just pull the hunk of the parisc tree with the syscalls

into my tree so I don't have to worry about merge order.
Yes, that should work fine.
