Either would work. Linus is fine with doing merge fixups and, after all,
I figured it out. :-)

A description always helps, of course.

Linus has merged the cifs tree, so you could fix these conflicts in your
tree by merging the cifs tree that Linus' merged (rather than merging
against all of Linus' tree). That would be commit
cb76d5e25008b76fb8e348c861d32659430ac3fa ("cifs: fsc should not default
to "on"") in Linus' tree.

Or you could leave it all to Linus if you want to.

Actually there is some more stuff in the cifs tree that has not gone to
Linus, yet. Sorry about that.
