spi.git/for-next now has two fixes for the same issue, from him (April 13),
and from Sato-san (May 4):
- 8844d0f1cb921f70c ("spi: bcm2835: Add GPIOLIB dependency")
- e0d58cdcaedd90e4 ("spi: bcm2835: depends GPIOLIB")

Git merged them "nicely" when you merged 'spi/topic/bcm2835' into
'spi-next', leading to this chunk in drivers/spi/Kconfig:

config SPI_BCM2835
tristate "BCM2835 SPI controller"
depends on GPIOLIB
depends on ARCH_BCM2835 || COMPILE_TEST
depends on GPIOLIB

I think Günter wants you to keep only the commit you will send to Linus
for v4.1-rc3, and remove the other commit.

Thanks!

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

Geert
