Hi Andrew,

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

In file included from include/linux/compat.h:18:0,
from arch/x86/include/asm/ia32.h:7,
from arch/x86/include/asm/sigframe.h:17,
from arch/x86/kernel/asm-offsets.c:16:
arch/x86/include/asm/compat.h: In function 'arch_compat_alloc_user_space':
arch/x86/include/asm/compat.h:232:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'percpu_read' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

Caused by commit d1a797f388d6 ("x32: Handle process creation") from the
tip tree interacting with commit 30999a95d190 ("percpu: remove percpu_xxx()
functions") from the akpm tree.

I applied the following fix up patch.

Subject: [PATCH] percpu: fix for removal of percpu_xxx function
