Thanks Michal, this was the problem. Unless x86_64 is going to receive an
implementation of LATENCY_TRACE soon, it might be an idea to only let this be
selectable on x86.
(Unfortunately I couldn't use the resulting kernel anyway, as my lirc modules
hang the system when modprobe'd; it's probably easy even for me to fix if I
inspect Ingo's rt-preempt patch.)
