Re: linux-next: manual merge of the vfs tree with the orangefs tree

[Mike Marshall]

Hi Stephen...

I noticed the conflict too when I added Al's patch series to the orangefs
tree we have on next. I understood Linus to say he'd fix the conflict the
way you did during the merge window. I guess that means you'll have to
keep fixing it on next until then... I hate causing trouble, let me know if
there's something different I should do to help...
