I didn't see this happen before, and it wasn't showing up in linux-next in the past, right? This patch has nothing to to with tracing, perhaps it is an #include file problem? Or is the build error a different one (remember the -Werror problem in linux-next that I fixed up for PPC?) confused, greg k-h
