The f2fs part of the conflict was merged into Linus' tree on Jan 31,
and I have been applying the conflict resolution patch for a whole
release cycle i.e. the btrfs tree part of the conflict did not get
merged during the last merge window, and has not been updated since
then - in fact the btrfs tree
(git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/linux-btrfs.git#next)
has not been updated or merged into Linus' tree since last December.
