Hi Andrew,

After merging the akpm-current tree, today's linux-next build (i386
defconfig) failed like this:

In file included from include/linux/mm.h:67:0,
from include/linux/suspend.h:8,
from arch/x86/kernel/asm-offsets.c:12:
arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable.h:212:24: error: redefinition of 'pud_trans_huge'
#define pud_trans_huge pud_trans_huge
^
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:696:19: note: in expansion of macro 'pud_trans_huge'
static inline int pud_trans_huge(pud_t pud)
^
arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable.h:208:19: note: previous definition of 'pud_trans_huge' was here
static inline int pud_trans_huge(pud_t pud)
^

Caused by commit

42416e8d1a10 ("x86-add-support-for-pud-sized-transparent-hugepages-fix")

Which, it turns out, is "wrong/hacky" :-)

I have reverted that patch for today and added this (also maybe
wrong/hacky) patch:

Subject: [PATCH] mm: fix 2 for add support for PUD-sized transparent hugepages
