I have a problem on powerpc from
zone_reclaim-reclaim-on-memory-only-node-support.patch:

mm/vmscan.c: In function `zone_reclaim':
mm/vmscan.c:1845: error: invalid lvalue in unary `&'

The preprocessed output is:

if (!(gfp_mask & (( gfp_t)0x10u)) ||
(!__cpus_empty(&(node_to_cpumask(zone->zone_pgdat->node_id)), 128) &&
...

I don't understand why this wouldn't die on every architecture,
since node_to_cpumask is an inline function.

(Using gcc version 3.4.4 20050721 (Red Hat 3.4.4-2))

thanks,
