linux-next currently has no easy way to include single patches like
this.  An alternative approach would be to ask Linus to take just the
changes to match_token() into his tree now (as they are clearly correct
and don't adversely affect any other code) and then send all the other
bits to each of the maintainers.  That way we avoid possible conflicts in
linux-next over the following months and during the next merge window.
