Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the staging tree

Hi Greg,

After merging the staging tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

drivers/staging/gdm724x/built-in.o: In function `netlink_init':
(.text+0x19b6): multiple definition of `netlink_init'
drivers/staging/gdm72xx/built-in.o:(.text+0x19d5): first defined here
drivers/staging/gdm724x/built-in.o: In function `netlink_exit':
(.text+0x1a2a): multiple definition of `netlink_exit'
drivers/staging/gdm72xx/built-in.o:(.text+0x1a49): first defined here
drivers/staging/gdm724x/built-in.o: In function `netlink_send':
(.text+0x1a4f): multiple definition of `netlink_send'
drivers/staging/gdm72xx/built-in.o:(.text+0x1a67): first defined here

Presumably caused by commit 61e121047645 ("staging: gdm7240: adding LTE
USB driver").  I disabled this driver using this patch:
