Sure. I wasn't aware quite how much you guys had planned for the perf
Makefile and I (wrongly) assumed that Arnaldo's ack was enough of an
indication that conflicts would be unlikely and/or trivial.

In future, I'll push back on any perf changes outside of arch/ in my tree,
but that doesn't help us get out of the current situation: the patches are
currently sitting in rmk's tree for 3.13, so that won't meet with -tip
(outside of next) until Linus pulls them both. What can we do about that?

Will
