Yesterday, the patch module:deal_with_alignment_issues_in_built_in_parameters.patch was also included and that is what caused the problem. > Looks to me, the FIXUP patch marked with ***** was not really applied > to linux-next?

Rusty has a new version of the above patch which includes the fix (I assume) but it is not included in linux-next today. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.canb.auug.org.au/~sfr/
