Greetings,

I have tried the patch provided below. Moving struct to file "net/core/rtnetlink.c" is not resolving the problem. Please find the below traces.

Hi, Eric!

Looks like we have to move struct dpll_pin definition to
include/linux/dpll.h to have this fixed, right?

No idea what is wrong. Is it powerpc specific ? Some compiler version ?

netdev_dpll_pin() could be moved to net/core/rtnetlink.c, this is the only user.
