Subject: linux-next: manual merge of the net-next tree with the net tree

Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the net-next tree got a conflict in:

net/ipv4/tcp_output.c

between commit:

a2815817ffa6 ("tcp: enable xmit timer fix by having TLP use time when RTO should fire")

from the net tree and commit:

bb4d991a28cc ("tcp: adjust tail loss probe timeout")

from the net-next tree.

I fixed it up (see below) 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.

Sorry about that. Will try to follow that procedure in the future.

The above is a generic statement I add to all these emails. It is
aimed more at the maintainers if the trees involved, no the developers
of patches. I don't think you need to do anything different in these
cases with the "net" and "net-next" tree. Dave Miller will fix up any
conflicts when he next merges the net tree into the net-next tree.
