This went in 2.6.13-rc3 (commit
542d1c88bd7f73e2e59d41b12e4a9041deea89e4), and broke sparc compilation
because of the following circular dependency:
asm-sparc/pgtable include linux/swap.h
linux/swap.h include now linux/pagemap.h
linux/pagemap.h include linux/mm.h
linux/mm.h include asm/pgtable.h

I haven't found a satisfactory way to resolve this, but i think the
patch should be removed (it removes a warning but breaks an
architecture).

Regards,

Benoit Boissinot
