This same build breakage showed up on ia64 sn2_defconfig,
and your patch fixes it nicely.  Thanks.

Andrian - I think that was your dump_thread-cleanup patch.

Please be sure to cross build other arch's when making non-local
changes, such as this one that affected the files:

    arch/arm26/kernel/armksyms.c

    include/asm-um/processor-generic.h
    include/linux/kernel.h

Sure, it consumes some time, but better you do it once, then each of
several of us have to first do a bisection on Andrew's gazillion
patches to find the culprit, and then stare at the patch until the light
bulb goes on in our dimm brains, only to grep back through the lkml
messages to find that we are not alone in our misery.
