The order makes no difference.

The problem is that we had conflicting patches: I still had Christoph's
patch, but Doug's tree did something different.

(The only reason to care about merge order is that if I sent my pull
request to Linus first, it would look like "here's the nfsd changes for
4.5.  Oh, plus a bunch of rdma changes from Doug which he can explain
later...".  So it'd be best if the rdma changes were already in before I
sent a pull request based on them.)

Sure, I'm fine with doing it either way.  Feel free to add my Acked-by:
to the patches you sent me before if that would simplify things.
