Please let me know what i can do here to help solve the problem.
linux-next continues to fail for avr32, and to make matters worse we
also have the similar problem in btrfs.

ERROR: "__avr32_udiv64" [fs/btrfs/btrfs.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "__avr32_udiv64" [drivers/watchdog/kempld_wdt.ko] undefined!

Adding Chris to CC if he has some idea how to solve this error for btrfs.
