sparse can't parse a struct definition in include/asm-powerpc/lppaca.h,
even though gcc can accept it. The form looks like this:
struct __attribute__((whatever)) foo { };
An equivalent that both gcc and sparse can handle is
struct foo { } __attribute__((whatever));
This is the only definition of this type in the tree, and fixing it is
easier than fixing sparse.
