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

[Stephen Rothwell]

Hi all,

After merging the bpf-next tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

Caused by the resilient-queued-spin-lock branch of the bpf-next tree
interacting with the "Enable strict percpu address space checks" series
form the mm-stable tree.

I don't know why this happens, but reverting that branch inf the bpf-next
tree makes the failure go away, so I have done that for today.
