linux-next: master_tmp tree build failure

Hi John,

Today's linux-next build (sparc64 defconfig) failed like this:

In file included from include/linux/wait.h:22,
from include/linux/fs.h:278,
from init/initramfs.c:2:
include/linux/list.h: In function `list_cut_position':
include/linux/list.h:240: error: implicit declaration of function `BUG_ON'

(and many more)

Caused by commit 3c1cd7bfd29b9dd2f314f711d136abf47331ba23 ("list.h: add
list_cut_position()") from the wireless-current tree.

(Looks like you were right to be cautious, Dave :-))

I tried to add an include of <linux/bug.h> to list.h, but then a powerpc
ppc64_defconfig would not build.

So I have reverted the above commit for now (and commit
bfccd8f16a76232b8b60c68289ef78ddb6836e19 ("ath9k: Add new Atheros IEEE
802.11n driver") which depended on it).
