It looks like Stephen Rothwell saw it in next yesterday, and fixed it
up there in his merge.

So somebody was aware of the problem. But unlike Stephen, I don't take
broken code and just silently fix it up in the merge.

I suspect Stephen might have thought it was a merge conflict fix,
rather than just a broken branch.

Stephen: that makes linux-next test coverage kind of pointless, if you
just fix bugs in the branches you merge. You should reject things more
aggressively, rather than make them "pass" in Linux-next.
