Fixes this powerpc build error in 2.6.22-rc6-mm1 for powerpc 64 :

In file included from include2/asm/tlb.h:60,

You have some wordwrapping going on there.

make[2]: *** [arch/powerpc/mm/init_64.o] Error 1

release_pages is declared in linux/pagemap.h, but cannot be included in
linux/swap.h because of a sparc related comment:

/* only sparc can not include linux/pagemap.h in this file
 * so leave page_cache_release and release_pages undeclared... */
#define free_page_and_swap_cache(page) \
        page_cache_release(page)
#define free_pages_and_swap_cache(pages, nr) \
        release_pages((pages), (nr), 0);

It's always a worry when this happens.  What change made us need this
inclusion? How come you're hitting it but I (and test.kernel.org, at least)
did not?  How come so few other architectures include pagemap.h from
asm/tlb.h?  Why do header files get into such a mess?

Oh well.  I queued it up for someone else to worry over ;)

Andrew,

Are you sending this to linus directly or should this go via paul and me?
