OK, I've rebased my tree on top of Linus's current tree and fixed up
the conflicts.
I do wonder why endianness annotations are being merged post -rc7.  If
anyone had sent them to me I would have waited for the 2.6.26 merge
window to send them to Linus.  Which also leads to the question of why
these patches, which are a subset of the annotations I've had sitting
in my tree (and in -next) for quite a while, were so urgent that they
had to bypass my tree...
Oh well, water under the bridge.  As you said the conflicts were
trivial so it's not a big deal to fix them up.
