Hi Andrew,

After merging the akpm-current tree, today's linux-next build (arm
multi_v7_defconfig) failed like this:

kernel/watchdog.c:654:6: error: redefinition of 'watchdog_nmi_enable_all'

Caused by commit

7e6e3bfa2820 ("kernel/watchdog: move NMI function header declarations from watchdog.h to nmi.h")

I have reverted that commit for today.



v2 with a fix submitted already, after the zero day build bots alerted me.

Sorry for the trouble; I didn't expect that there would be two sets of dummy functions.
No excuse, of course :-(.
