The conflict came from my config file changes for tegra USB keyboard
which went up to u-boot/master through Marek's tree becasue they
depend on my USB DMA alignment fix which was not a tegra change.
There are subsequent changes in both the tegra and arm trees that were
not based on that change, so they now conflict when attempting to
merge back into u-boot/master.

It's trivial for me to resolve the conflict since I have context on
the changes.  I see that there are other merge conflicts between
u-boot/master and u-boot-arm/master though, so I'm not sure how to
proceed.  Albert do you just want me to post merged versions of the
two files that conflict, so you know how to resolve the conflict
during your merge?
