Subject: linux-next: manual merge of the tip tree with the security tree

Hi all,

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

  security/apparmor/include/apparmor.h

between commit:

  12557dcba21b ("apparmor: move lib definitions into separate lib include")

from the security tree and commit:

  6b1ffa06e59d ("locking/atomic, kref: Use kref_get_unless_zero() more")

from the tip tree.

I fixed it up (the former moved the code to another file, so I applied the
below patch there) 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.
