Hi Dominik,

After merging the syscalls tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
allnoconfig) failed like this:

arch/powerpc/kernel/syscalls.o: In function `ppc_fadvise64_64':
syscalls.c:(.text+0xb8): undefined reference to `ksys_fadvise64_64'

Caused by commit

  fabbf34a610d ("mm: add ksys_fadvise64_64() helper; remove in-kernel call to sys_fadvise64_64()")

CONFIG_ADVISE_SYSCALLS is not set in this build ...

I have reverted that commit for today.

Hi Dominik,

After merging the syscalls tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allnoconfig) failed like this:


Caused by commit

  3e334170db85 ("mm: use do_futex() instead of sys_futex() in mm_release()")

CONFIG_FUTEX is not set for this build.  Normally sys_futex() would be
the one from kernel/sys_ni.c in this case ...

I have reverted that commit for today.
