Seeing as you went to all that effort, I thought it was only fair that
I did the same.  After some digging my tentative conclusion is that
Linux -next is up-to-date with net-next, but net-next is not
up-to-date with Linux -next.

I think this patch is conflicting:

 smc91x: remove GPIOLIB dependency.

Was that taken in via another tree?  If not resolved there is a chance
that this may cause a conflict when net-next is merged into Mainline.

..

Okay, so what would you like me to do?  Would you like me to re-submit
the set based only on net-next, or are you happy with your 3-way
merge?

I'll do as you ask.
