linux-next: boot failure

[Stephen Rothwell]

Hi Eric,

next-20090630 failed to boot (on PowerPC Power5/6 machines):

calling  .audit_watch_init+0x0/0x80 @ 1
Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0xffffffffffffffff

next-20090629 was fine.  The commits in 0630 and not in 0629 (from the
fsnotify tree) are:

      Audit: clean up the audit_watch split
      audit: convert audit watches to use fsnotify instead of inotify
      audit: redo audit watch locking and refcnt in light of fsnotify
      audit: do not get and put just to free a watch
      fsnotify: duplicate fsnotify_mark_entry data between 2 marks
      fsnotify: allow addition of duplicate fsnotify marks
      audit: reimplement audit_trees using fsnotify rather than inotify
      inotify: deprecate the inotify kernel interface

If I have time, I may do a bisection.
