[BUILD_FAILURE] 2.6.29-rc3 : drivers/ata/sata_sil.c

[Sachin P. Sant]

2.6.29-rc3 with allmodconfig breaks with following message


CALL    arch/powerpc/kernel/systbl_chk.sh
CALL    arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_init_check.sh
LD [M]  drivers/ata/libata.o
CC [M]  drivers/ata/sata_sil.o
drivers/ata/sata_sil.c: In function sil_broken_system_poweroff:
drivers/ata/sata_sil.c:713: error: implicit declaration of function dmi_first_match
drivers/ata/sata_sil.c:713: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast
make[2]: *** [drivers/ata/sata_sil.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [drivers/ata] Error 2
make: *** [drivers] Error 2

Probably needs to include <linux/dmi.h>. The following patch fixes it.
