Looks like there are a few places (in arch/powerpc) that were getting asm/prom.h via asm/lmb.h, I'll send a patch in the morning. cheers arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c:124: error: implicit declaration of function 'of_find_node_by_type' arch/powerpc/platforms/ps3/os-area.c:215: error: variable 'property_rtc_diff' has initializer but incomplete type -- Michael Ellerman OzLabs, IBM Australia Development Lab wwweb: http://michael.ellerman.id.au phone: +61 2 6212 1183 (tie line 70 21183) We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children. - S.M.A.R.T Person
