2.4.7ac9,10,11 compile error on Sparc (revisited)

[Holzrichter, Bruce]

Hello,

Just want to let you know I am running into an error trying to compile the
ac kernels on Sparc Ultra5.  The plain 2.4.7 compiles fine, and I have also
compiled 2.4.8pre8 fine.  ac9,10 and 11, after applying the patch and during
the make vmlinux, it errors out with the error below.  It looks like an
include header file is being looked for, hw_irq.h which is not in the asm
tree.  I thought originally that the symlink for asm was not getting
created, but it is correctly created.  I was trying to track down where the
include file may be getting called from, but have not found it yet.

Error:
In file included from sched.c:26:

/usr/src/linux-2.4.7/include/linux/irq.h:61: asm/hw_irq.h: No such file or
directory

make[2]: *** [sched.o] Error 1

make[1]: *** [first_rule] Error 2

make: *** [_dir_kernel] Error 2

Quickhack:  touch include-asm-sparc64/hw_irq.h.

Right soloution: replaces <linux/irq.h> with <asm/irq.h> in sched.c,
fix eventual problems with that.
