Subject: linux-next: manual merge of the char-misc tree with the net-next
 tree

Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the char-misc tree got a conflict in:

  include/linux/hyperv.h

between commit:

  30d1de08c87d ("hv_netvsc: make inline functions static")

from the net-next tree and commit:

  bb08d431a914 ("Drivers: hv: ring_buffer: count on wrap around mappings in get_next_pkt_raw()")

from the char-misc tree.

I fixed it up (the former moved the code modified by the latter, so the
below patch applies to the new location of the code) and can carry the
fix as necessary. This is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned,
but any non trivial conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream
maintainer when your tree is submitted for merging.  You may also want
to consider cooperating with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to
minimise any particularly complex conflicts.
