Lustre fails modpost on (at least) 4 architectures due to unexported arch
support functions: m68k, mips, parisc and sparc64 (patches sent).
All 4 failures were not visible in -next due to other build failures :-(
Interestingly, m68k-allmodconfig _succeeded_ on kissb
(http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/buildresult/9458139/), while the
corresponding sparc64 build failed
(http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/buildresult/9458166/).
I have no idea why the m68k build didn't fail there...

Odd, what functions were not present in those arches that lustre uses
that no other kernel code uses?

Ah, that's why it wasn't caught, thanks for doing this.

All architectures provided copy_from_user_page() for builtin code, but
somed lacked symbol exports.
