Ok.
Building on parisc fails at multiple files like this:
CC mm/filemap.o

So, you still need e.g. this patch:
diff --git a/arch/parisc/include/asm/sections.h b/arch/parisc/include/asm/sections.h
index b041fb32a300..177983490e7c 100644
--- a/arch/parisc/include/asm/sections.h
+++ b/arch/parisc/include/asm/sections.h
@@ -4,6 +4,8 @@
#ifdef CONFIG_64BIT
#define HAVE_DEREFERENCE_FUNCTION_DESCRIPTOR 1
+#include <asm/elf.h>
+#include <linux/uaccess.h>
typedef Elf64_Fdesc funct_descr_t;
#endif
In general to save space I think it would be beneficial if the
dereference_kernel_function_descriptor() and
dereference_kernel_function_descriptor() functions would go as real
functions a c-file instead of just being inlined functions in the
asm-generic/sections.h header file.
Other than that it's a nice cleanup!
