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

Hi Eric,

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

  include/linux/sysctl.h

between commit:

  e79c6a4fc923 ("net: make net namespace sysctls belong to container's owner")

from the net-next tree and commit:

  13bcc6a28534 ("sysctl: Stop implicitly passing current into sysctl_table_root.lookup")

from the userns tree.

I fixed it up (see below) 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.

Cheers,
Stephen Rothwell
