Hi all, Today's linux-next build (powerpc ppc44x_defconfig) failed like this: In file included from arch/powerpc/kvm/booke.c:31: arch/powerpc/kvm/timing.h: In function 'kvmppc_account_exit_stat': arch/powerpc/kvm/timing.h:51: error: bit-field '<anonymous>' width not an integer constant In file included from arch/powerpc/kvm/booke.h:26, from arch/powerpc/kvm/booke_emulate.c:23: arch/powerpc/kvm/timing.h: In function 'kvmppc_account_exit_stat': arch/powerpc/kvm/timing.h:51: error: bit-field '<anonymous>' width not an integer constant Presumably caused by commit 8c87df457cb58fe75b9b893007917cf8095660a0 ("BUILD_BUG_ON(): fix it and a couple of bogus uses of it").
