I don't know what you've done, but this doesn't apply.

When you have resolved this problem, run "git am --continue".
If you prefer to skip this patch, run "git am --skip" instead.
To restore the original branch and stop patching, run "git am --abort".
The github the cover letter points at has a different patch, that shouldn't happen.
