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

[Stephen Rothwell]

Hi Andrew,

After merging the akpm tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc64_defconfig) failed like this:

Caused by commit 629d589817da ("tick-sched: add specific do_timer_cpu
value for nohz off mode") interacting with the removal of sysdevs in the
driver-core tree.  This patch will need reworking for that.

I have reverted that commit for today.
