Subject: linux-next: manual merge of the akpm-current tree with the
 compiler-attributes tree

Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the akpm-current tree got conflicts in:

  include/linux/compiler-gcc.h
  include/linux/compiler_types.h

between commit:

  a3f8a30f3f00 ("Compiler Attributes: use feature checks instead of version checks")

from the compiler-attributes tree and commit:

  b6fbc7334215 ("include/linux/compiler*.h: add version detection to asm_volatile_goto")

from the akpm-current 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
