When switching powerpc to CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK, include/sched.h
has to be included in asm/smp.h for the following change, in order
to avoid uncomplete definition of task_struct:
-#define raw_smp_processor_id() (current_thread_info()->cpu)
+#define raw_smp_processor_id() (current->cpu)
But this generates the following compilation error, due to circular
header dependency.

This patch fixes it by including linux/hrtimer.h after linux/sched.h

Should it be fixed in powerpc instead ? In that case, how ? Any idea ?
Looks like there are several other places where the problem occurs, so
it has to be fixed in the powerpc headers instead.
Seems like RISC arch faced the same issue, and fixed it the following way:
/*
* This is particularly ugly: it appears we can't actually get the
definition
* of task_struct here, but we need access to the CPU this task is
running on.
* Instead of using C we're using asm-offsets.h to get the current
processor
* ID.
*/
#define raw_smp_processor_id() (*((int*)((char*)get_current() +
TASK_TI_CPU)))
Unless someone has a better idea, I'll fixed it that way.
