I think what happened here is that I submitted a patchset for msi
abstractions (and others posted a couple of subsequent bugfix incrementals),
but these were not taken into the 2.6.16 base 'cause of their invasiveness.
These patches touched the tioce_provider.c file.

Then I submitted another patch which touched the tioce_provider.c file, and
it looks like I probably based this file on the previous msi versions which
were being held back, so in order for everything to build, you need all of
the msi patches applied first.

What's the preferred way to handle this ... fix the current ia64 build and
then resubmit the msi patches relative to that base?
