After merging the char-misc tree into -next an x86 allmodconfig build fails
with:

drivers/misc/mic/host/mic_main.c: In function âmic_probeâ:
drivers/misc/mic/host/mic_main.c:320:3: error: too many arguments to function âsysfs_get_direntâ
NULL, "state");
^

sysfs_get_dirent(struct sysfs_dirent *parent_sd, const unsigned char
*name)
^
make[4]: *** [drivers/misc/mic/host/mic_main.o] Error 1

caused by an interaction between the addition of the Intel MIC host
driver and commit 388975cccaaf1 (sysfs: clean up sysfs_get_dirent())
from the driver-current tree.

I've applied the patch below and can carry it for the time being.
