There's a merge conflict in here as well, in drivers/base/platform.c.
The resolution should be pretty straightfoward, keep this line:
looking something like this:

diff --cc drivers/base/platform.c
index 0fb5f140f1b0,e1ba610482c0..000000000000
--- a/drivers/base/platform.c
+++ b/drivers/base/platform.c
@@@ -447,7 -447,8 +447,7 @@@ void platform_device_del(struct platfor
{
int i;

- if (pdev) {
+ if (!IS_ERR_OR_NULL(pdev)) {
- device_remove_properties(&pdev->dev);
device_del(&pdev->dev);

if (pdev->id_auto) {
