This change (commit 39d2f1ab2a36ac527a6c41cfe689f50c239eaca3) seems to
have broken the m68k build:

| CC arch/m68k/kernel/asm-offsets.s
| In file included from linux/include/linux/mm_types.h:12,
| from linux/include/linux/sched.h:61,

| make[3]: *** [arch/m68k/kernel/asm-offsets.s] Error 1

| make[1]: *** [sub-make] Error 2

(cfr. http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/buildresult/42080/)

Apparently there was not sufficient time between entering linux-next and
Linus' tree to notice this breakage before, while the original patch was already
posted on July 11...
