Andrew, this should be fixable by moving the immediately following patch "fbdev: add events for early fb event support" before this one.

Whoa. What are you actually doing over there? A build test for each and every patch in linux-next? Impressed!

Yup. I've been running 32 CPU cores all day&night, which build tests ~1300 commits and creates ~25000 kernel images each day.

To be exact, I'm build testing the akpm-base..akpm part of linux-next. For the other parts of linux-next, I'm directly build testing the trees/branches that linux-next pulls from, so as to find problems and give feedback to the developers *ASAP*. The ultimate goal is to build test each and every commit once they hit any topic/test branch, hopefully before they are merged into some for-next branches.

The build test system is still catching up to test lots of old commits and build up database of "known" build errors and warnings. Once ready, I'll switch it into auto email notification mode. So in future, when someone "git push" new patches, he will likely receive emails about new build errors/warnings (if there are any) in one hour.

Thanks,
Fengguang
