Well, it only shows up when we cross compile for mips. It does not
seem to be showing up for any other arch (and we cover ~10 of them).
Nor does it show up for x86 builds. Also note that the main linux-next
build machine is actually a PowerPC host.

My local system is a bog standard ubuntu 14.10 and it sees it. I dont
know what distro the linux-next IBM powerpc builder is based on but it
also sees it....
Here is what V=1 output looks like:
(cat /dev/null; ) > samples/kdbus/modules.order
gcc -Wp,-MD,samples/kdbus/.kdbus-workers.d -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -std=gnu89 -I./usr/include -o samples/kdbus/kdbus-workers samples/kdbus/kdbus-workers.c -lrt
samples/kdbus/kdbus-workers.c: In function ‘prime_new’:
samples/kdbus/kdbus-workers.c:934:18: error: ‘__NR_memfd_create’ undeclared (first use in this function)
p->fd = syscall(__NR_memfd_create, "prime-area", MFD_CLOEXEC);
^
samples/kdbus/kdbus-workers.c:934:18: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
scripts/Makefile.host:91: recipe for target 'samples/kdbus/kdbus-workers' failed
make[2]: *** [samples/kdbus/kdbus-workers] Error 1
scripts/Makefile.build:403: recipe for target 'samples/kdbus' failed
make[1]: *** [samples/kdbus] Error 2
Makefile:1569: recipe for target 'samples/' failed
make: *** [samples/] Error 2
and here is what is in ./usr/include:
paul@yow-lpgnfs-02:~/git/linux-head$ grep -R __NR_memfd_create ./usr/include/
./usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h:#define __NR_memfd_create 279
./usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h:__SYSCALL(__NR_memfd_create, sys_memfd_create)
./usr/include/asm/unistd.h:#define __NR_memfd_create (__NR_Linux + 354)
./usr/include/asm/unistd.h:#define __NR_memfd_create (__NR_Linux + 314)
./usr/include/asm/unistd.h:#define __NR_memfd_create (__NR_Linux + 318)
paul@yow-lpgnfs-02:~/git/linux-head$
..so it is in there, but presumably something wrt mips ifdeffery
means it is thrown out by cpp.

Yes, after I fixed up the mangling from it being sent as
quoted-printable, it fixes the issue; or at least avoids it.

Thanks,
