Not a huge deal, I guess, the conflict is mechanical and the patches
are simple.  I can take care of manual backports once we get the
'failed to apply' emails.  Just a bit of busy work.

FWIW, I CCed a few people on v1 to have a conversation about a proper
fix, but that wasn't fruitful.  So, if I were Norbert, I wouldn't
include them for the new versions either as doing so always feels like
me being annoying. :)

For now, the plan is to get v4 of these targeted fixes into net and
stable and then remove skb_tx_error() entirely once net-next is open,
as it seems to have lost all of its prior meaning.
