sge.c was overlapping two changes, one to use the new
__dev_alloc_page() in net-next, and one to use s->fl_pg_order in net.

ixgbe_phy.c was a set of overlapping whitespace changes.

+ * Sorting function for lists of fsnotify marks.
+ *
+ * Fanotify supports different notification classes (reflected as priority of
+ * notification group). Events shall be passed to notification groups in
+ * decreasing priority order. To achieve this marks in notification lists for
+ * inodes and vfsmounts are sorted so that priorities of corresponding groups
+ * are descending.
+ *
+ * Furthermore correct handling of the ignore mask requires processing inode
+ * and vfsmount marks of each group together. Using the group address as
+ * further sort criterion provides a unique sorting order and thus we can
+ * merge inode and vfsmount lists of marks in linear time and find groups
+ * present in both lists.
+ *
+ * A return value of 1 signifies that b has priority over a.
+ * A return value of 0 signifies that the two marks have to be handled together.
+ * A return value of -1 signifies that a has priority over b.
