I am still seeing this error which means that I am still using the
version of your tree from next-20140210 i.e. Feb 10. It is a bit
disappointing that his has not been fixed in such a long time even though
there have been other updates to your tree which means that those other
changes have received no exposure in linux-next. It is a trivial error,
but it does indicate that noone ever build tested that particular commit.

(this is now commit 2fc7e7d25bee in your tree since it was rewritten but
not fixed on Feb 14.)
