Hi,

drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/core/subdev/i2c/aux.c 

When trying to clone the linux kernel on Windows, that file will fail due to
Windows not liking the file name `aux` since it's one of the reserved words
used for DOS devices.

That file was created by commit 4196faa86232 ("drm/nouveau/i2c: port to
subdev interfaces") and has been in the main kernel tree since v3.7-rc1.

This is not a problem with linux-next as such.
