hm, cannot reproduce it here with linux-next-0702.

but ... this looks quite similar to an issue triggered by the 
tip/x86/xen-64bit topic (and fixed by the patch below) - but that's not 
in linux-next yet.

    x86_64: fix non-paravirt compilation
    
    Make sure SWAPGS and PARAVIRT_ADJUST_EXCEPTION_FRAME are properly
    defined when CONFIG_PARAVIRT is off.
    
    Fixes Ingo's build failure:
