Just FYI:
Build with gcc-4.6 is OK, now.
(+) OK writeback-dirty-throttling-v7-fix/writeback-i386-compile-fix.patch
(+) OK writeback-dirty-throttling-v7-fix/0001-Revert-writeback-scale-dirty-proportions-period-with.patch
In case of the ilog2 error I have g00gled a bit and found gcc-bug
#36359 and looked also at include/linux/log2.h [2].
Not sure if this is a gcc-4.6 bug and I shall open a ticket (or a
problem in your code?).
I have tried the testcase from [3], it gives same output for nm.
[4] I could not follow.
