The 2.6.14-rc5-mm1 code fails to compile on a uniprocessor
system if CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK is not specified. This seems
to be a simple error in the (MM) spinlock_up.h header where the
_raw_{read,write}_unlock macros are defined only in the DEBUG
branch, yet, in MM, are required in all cases.
The patch will apply cleanly to both 2.6.14 and 2.6.14-rc5-mm1,
however it is not required in 2.6.14 (though it seems to do no
harm). The patch is confusing because it (effectively) moves
the #endif up rather than moving the _raw macros down.
