Hi Andrew,

After merging the akpm-current tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc64_defconfig) failed like this:

arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in.o: In function `.apply_relocate_add':
(.text+0x302e4): undefined reference to `.elf64_apply_relocate_add'

I needed to add the following merge resolution patch:
