This patch has an unexpected side-effect on i386 allmodconfig builds:

arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel.c: In function ‘intel_workarounds’:
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel.c:452:17: error: ‘movsl_mask’ undeclared (first use in this function)
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel.c:452:17: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
make[5]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:207: arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel.o] Error 1

Due to the removal of the <asm/uaccess.h> header.

The attached patch fixes it.

Thanks,

Ingo
