The patch for commit 6a2d2ddf2c34 ("drm: Move nomodeset kernel parameter
to the DRM subsystem") was generated with config 'diff.noprefix true'.
But later was applied using 'cat nomodeset.mbox | dim apply-branch' on a
machine with 'diff.noprefix false'. And command 'git am --scissors -3' as
used by the dim tool doesn't handle that case well, since the 3-way merge
wrongly resolves the path for new file drivers/gpu/drm/drm_nomodeset.c as
gpu/drm/drm_nomodeset.c instead.
It led to the following build error as reported by the kernel test robot:
make[4]: *** No rule to make target 'drivers/gpu/drm/drm_nomodeset.o', needed by 'drivers/gpu/drm/built-in.a'.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
