linux-next is usually the correct thing to use here, but note that I get
lots of patches from lots of people and sometimes there are conflicts.
Odds are someone had sent me patches that touched these files before
you, and I applied them earlier in the day.

If you want to work on staging patches, I suggest working off of my
staging-testing branch of staging.git on git.kernel.org as that always
has the latest set of patches I've accepted.  There will always be
conflicts at times, which is normal, but that should reduce them to a
managable level.

Hope this helps,
