When I look at arm-soc/for-next, there is no arch/arm/mach-dove/board-dt.c file, so it currently builds cleanly and the problem is only when merging your branch with the arm-soc/timer/cleanup branch. This is not hard to fix, and there are two ways that work equally well, just pick one that works for you: * rebase your branch on top of the arm-soc/timer/cleanup branch and let us know about the dependency when you send a pull request for it. * if you don't want to rebase your branch, pull arm-soc/timer/cleanup into it and do this change in the merge changeset, noting it down in the changeset description. As above, when you send such a branch, let us know of the dependency. If the branch with the merge problem is destined for 3.10, the timer cleanups will already be in there, so you can simply base on them now and don't need to track the dependencies. Arnd
