Hello, Stephen,

Please accept my apologies for the hassle!  I had removed that commit
for the duration of the merge window, and forgotten about it when I
re-added all my non-3.19 commits.  :-/

Could you please send your .config?  Or let me know whether it has
CONFIG_KVM=n?

Pranith, if Stephen has CONFIG_KVM=n, it might be best to move the
"select SRCU" to "config PPC" in arch/powerpc/Kconfig.  Are you able
to cross-build powerpc?

							Thanx, Paul
