The uapi-include only causes the warning, not the build failure. There's already a fix for that queued: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git/commit/?h=kdbus&id=526edb23cd096375683455c73b56baba34ae3f06 Thanks David -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-next" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
