linux-next: build failure after merge of the final tree(security-testing tree related)

Hi James,

After merging the final tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
allyesconfig) failed like this:

security/selinux/ss/services.c: In function 'security_read_policy':
security/selinux/ss/services.c:3172: error: implicit declaration of function 'vmalloc_user'
security/selinux/ss/services.c:3172: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast

Caused by commit ed167abda544bb7f8cf09dc3d3608c79e1cfb25f ("SELinux:
allow userspace to read policy back out of the kernel") and
bb17427490e1e295f3c0550c308684bd952a585d ("selinux: implement mmap
on /selinux/policy").

Please see Rule 1 (in Documentation/SubmitChecklist).

I applied the following patch for today:
