Yes, but I expect the "sh" patch presumably to go in at the next merge 
window as well.  Since in this case the conflict was both patches making 
similar changes where Tejun's was more extensive, I figured I might as 
well save someone from having to resolve this useless merge conflict 
during the next merge window.

Yes, I'm hoping to have vmlinux.lds cleanup patches for most architectures 
before the merge window starts, though as I am quite busy, I can't make 
any guarantees.
