That patch has been in linux-next since Dec 3 as commit 77a4494388ab in
Andrew's patch set (and maybe earlier). However, also in Adnrew's
patch set is another patch ("init: remove CONFIG_INIT_FALLBACK") that
then removes CONFIG_INIT_FALLBACK. There is a conflict because the
first has gone into Linus' tree today (as commit 6ef4536e2f19), but the
second has not (I don't know why not).
Hmmm, I would have expected the Kconfig entry to be removed as well,
but either I missed that, or git is not as clever as I expect it to be.

I hope so.
