  Subject: [PATCH] appletalk: Fix skb leak when ipddp interface is not loaded
  ...

Fixed up trivial conflicts:

 - arch/x86/include/asm/socket.h

   converted to <asm-generic/socket.h> in the x86 tree.  The generic
   header has the same new #define's, so that works out fine.

 - drivers/net/tun.c

   fix conflict between 89f56d1e9 ("tun: reuse struct sock fields") that
   switched over to using 'tun->socket.sk' instead of the redundantly
   available (and thus removed) 'tun->sk', and 2b980dbd ("lsm: Add hooks
   to the TUN driver") which added a new 'tun->sk' use.

   Noted in 'next' by Stephen Rothwell.
