Just warn Linus that there will be a conflict with Al's stuff. You could
supply him with the patch I gave you just for good measure, but he is
good (better then me) at fixing merge conflicts and will ping you if he
has doubts.

i.e. don't rebase or even bother doing the merge yourself. Just ask him
to pull what was in linux-next.
