It looks as though you have not gone back far enough - you removed a
couple of merges of sched/numa, but there are more. I have two of the
problems resolved with merge patches that supply pmd_pgprot() for s390
and mips, but there is another problem with mips (see Ralf's other email).

Also, I suspect that if you do exclude all the sched/numa changes it will
make a mess of Andrew's mmotm (as it basically sits on top of linux-next).
