I think you have just made your tree fail to build as nla_strscpy does
not exist in your tree ... Just remove that commit and tell Linus about
the necessary change and he can add it to the merge.

And, no, rebasing your tree in Linus', or even doing a merge with
Linus' tree is not really a reasonable option at this point.
