Yeah, the last release has been rough on conflicts. I will move the
new code to rust-next for your Monday run (based onto -rc5) -- there
has been some changes since last time and I already have it in sync in
our internal branch. Thanks for keeping up with all the conflicts!

As for GitHub, thanks for the warning! We only use the GUI for
internal development only; for the -next branch I prepare it manually.
I will also rearrange things to follow a normal kernel process when we
hit mainline.

Cheers,
Miguel
