With this patch applied, I get the following build error:

drivers/tty/vt/consolemap.c: In function ‘con_set_trans_old’:
drivers/tty/vt/consolemap.c:315:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘console_lock’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
drivers/tty/vt/consolemap.c:323:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘console_unlock’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

what went wrong?

I've applied the first 5 in this series to my tree now, but not this
one.

thanks,

greg k-h
