What's in the tip tree is not the same even though there are
similarities. I know that bypassing linux-next like this is not the done
thing but it was not possible to have this tree in linux-next before
now. After this mail https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/11/62 my expectation
is that that the numacore bits from tip that were included in linux-next
will not be pulled this time. However, due to some of the similarities
I'm hoping that the collisions due to pulling this tree will not be too
severe.
