Build failures like this one shouldn't depend on the compiler version -
and it's still a mystery how and why this build bug triggered - we cannot
apply the fix without knowing the answer to those questions.
Can you reproduce the build bug with Linus's latest tree? If not, which
part of -next triggers the build failure?
Thanks,
Ingo
