Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the xen tree

Hi all,

After merging the xen tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig)
failed like this:

arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c:71: error: __pcpu_scope_xen_vcpu causes a section type conflict
arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c:72: error: __pcpu_scope_xen_vcpu_info causes a section type conflict
arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c:71: error: __pcpu_unique_xen_vcpu causes a section type conflict
arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c:72: error: __pcpu_unique_xen_vcpu_info causes a section type conflict
arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c:565: error: __pcpu_unique_idt_desc causes a section type conflict
arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c:767: error: __pcpu_unique_xen_cr0_value causes a section type conflict

Presumably because commit "support multiple .discard.* sections to avoid
section type conflicts" was dropped from the xen tree today.

I have used the xen tree from next-20100727 for today.
