linux-next: manual merge of the akpm-current tree with the tip tree

[Stephen Rothwell]

Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the akpm-current tree got conflicts in:

  include/linux/sched/mm.h
  kernel/sched/core.c

between commit:

  8d491de6edc2 ("sched: Move mmdrop to RCU on RT")

from the tip tree and commits:

  5a21ba83ddb2 ("lazy tlb: introduce lazy mm refcount helper functions")
  ade2ef2cb563 ("lazy tlb: allow lazy tlb mm refcounting to be configurable")

from the akpm-current tree.

I don't know if my merging of both these makes sense, but guidance
is welcome.

I fixed it up (see below, and used the latter version of kernel/sched/core.c
) and can carry the fix as necessary. This is now fixed as far as
linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial conflicts should be mentioned
to your upstream maintainer when your tree is submitted for merging.
You may also want to consider cooperating with the maintainer of the
conflicting tree to minimise any particularly complex conflicts.
