Hi Andrew,

After merging the akpm-current tree, today's linux-next build (sparc
defconfig) failed like this:

In file included from arch/sparc/include/asm/pgtable_32.h:437:0,
from arch/sparc/include/asm/pgtable.h:6,
from include/linux/mm.h:53,
from include/linux/ring_buffer.h:5,
from include/linux/ftrace_event.h:5,
from include/trace/syscall.h:6,
from include/linux/syscalls.h:81,
from init/initramfs.c:19:
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h: In function 'pmdp_collapse_flush':
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:211:2: error: implicit declaration of function '__pmd' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
return __pmd(0);
^
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:211:2: error: incompatible types when returning type 'int' but 'pmd_t' was expected

Caused by commit b0593c13d7f6 ("mm/thp: split out pmd collapse/flush
into separate functions").

sparc 32 has no __pmd(). I applied this temporary fix for today just
to get it building:
