linux-next: build failure after merge of the tip tree

Hi all,

After merging the tip tree, today's linux-next build (arm
multi_v7_defconfig) failed like this:

net/core/dev.c: In function 'sk_busy_loop':
net/core/dev.c:5065:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'cpu_relax_lowlatency' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
cpu_relax_lowlatency();
^

Caused by commit

5bd0b85ba8bb ("locking/core, arch: Remove cpu_relax_lowlatency()")

interacting with commit

217f69743681 ("net: busy-poll: allow preemption in sk_busy_loop()")

from the net-next tree.

I have applied the following merge fix patch.
