Sorry, got ahead of myself there and forgot to include the diff: diff --git a/arch/arm64/include/asm/thread_info.h b/arch/arm64/include/asm/thread_info.h index f1bf6f6243ac..6da41eaa64bb 100644 --- a/arch/arm64/include/asm/thread_info.h +++ b/arch/arm64/include/asm/thread_info.h @@ -8,8 +8,6 @@ #ifndef __ASM_THREAD_INFO_H #define __ASM_THREAD_INFO_H -#include <linux/compiler.h> - #ifndef __ASSEMBLY__ struct task_struct;
