Hi all,
After merging the tip tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig)
failed like this:
In file included from include/uapi/linux/stddef.h:1:0,
from include/linux/stddef.h:4,
from include/uapi/linux/posix_types.h:4,

Caused by commit
67d97da34917 ("drm/i915: Only start retire worker when idle")
from the drm-intel tree interacting with commit
331b6d8c7afc ("locking/barriers: Validate lockless_dereference() is used on a pointer type")
from the tip tree.
>From include/linux/compiler.h:
* lockless_dereference() - safely load a pointer for later dereference
* @p: The pointer to load
It looks like lockless_dererence() has been used incorrectly
in the drm-intel tree commit since its argument must be a
pointer to be dererenced later. The same thing is done in
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.c as well.
I have applied the following hack patch for now, but this needs to be
fixed properly.
