indeed - sorry.

Note that debug_kmap_atomic() will be removed in v2.6.33 so i'd suggest 
to just do the easy solution and add #ifndef dummy definitions to 
mm/highmem.c to cover ARM - we'll remove the whole cruft for good.

Btw., testing sidenote: i test the ARM defconfig and it didnt break 
there. Perhaps highmem is off in the ARM defconfig? It would be helpful 
if the ARM defconfig enabled highmem.

Thanks,

	Ingo
