Just FYI:
I contacted Jens last night and he refreshed his for-linus GIT branch.
Adding missing include <linux/fs.h> did not fix the issue.
I am trying with the attached one.

Subject: [PATCH] nilfs2,ubifs: Use empty_aops without any functions defined

With the ->sync_page() hook gone, we have a few users that
add their own static address_space_operations without any
functions defined.

Furthermore for UBIFS:
1. Consider inode_operations and file_operations have also
   no functions defined
2. Move {address_space,inode,file}_operations to create_xattr()
3. Transform to empty_{aops,fops,iops}
