Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the kspp tree

Hi all,

After merging the kspp tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc64_defconfig) failed like this:

In file included from include/linux/string_helpers.h:7,
                 from include/linux/seq_file.h:7,

                 from arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.c:21:
include/linux/string_choices.h:74:27: error: redefinition of 'str_true_false'
   74 | static inline const char *str_true_false(bool v)
      |                           ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
include/linux/string_choices.h:68:27: note: previous definition of 'str_true_false' with type 'const char *(bool)' {aka 'const char *(_Bool)'}
   68 | static inline const char *str_true_false(bool v)
      |                           ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Caused by commit

  6ff4cd1160af ("lib/string_choices: Add str_true_false()/str_false_true() helper")

interacting with commit

  32cebfe1cc21 ("lib/string_choices: add str_true_false()/str_false_true() helper")

from the mm-nonmm-unstable branch of the mm tree.

Git inserted both definitions in my merge.

I have applied the following merge fix patch.

Subject: [PATCH] fix up for "lib/string_choices: Add
 str_true_false()/str_false_true() helper'

merging badly with "lib/string_choices: add
str_true_false()/str_false_true() helper" from the mm tree.
