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

Hi all,

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

  arch/powerpc/kernel/irq.c

between commit:

  c8e409a33cf8 ("powerpc/irq: use memblock functions returning virtual address")
and other patches in the powerpc tree

from the powerpc tree and patch:

  "powerpc: use memblock functions returning virtual address"

from the akpm-current tree.

This file looks the same after applying either of those patches, so I
just used the powerpc version of the file due to the other changes.

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.

The akpm patch now looks like this:
