Kernel version 3.6.0-rc2, and probably -rc1 as well. I get the
following compile-time error on alpha architecture:
(...)
CC net/core/sock.o
net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: initializer element is not constant
net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: (near initialization for "memalloc_socks")
net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: initializer element is not constant
make[2]: *** [net/core/sock.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [net/core] Error 2
make: *** [net] Error 2
Compiler is gcc-4.6.3.
Line 274 of net/core/sock.c is
struct static_key memalloc_socks = STATIC_KEY_INIT_FALSE;
which made its first appearance in 3.6.0-rc1.

Try v3.6-rc3. It should be fixed now.
Cheers
Michael.

Bob,
Is this a different issue to the one discussed and fixed earlier in the month
with this email subject:
Re: [next:akpm 129/309] net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: initializer element is not constant
Sounds very similar.

That got it. Finally saw the discussion on the bug (from about a month
ago -- thanks, Simon).
