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

Hi all,

After merging the final tree, today's linux-next build (sparc32 defconfig)
failed like this:

drivers/misc/kgdbts.c: In function 'check_and_rewind_pc':
drivers/misc/kgdbts.c:307: error: implicit declaration of function 'instruction_pointer_set'

Caused by commit 63ab25ebbc50 ("kgdbts: unify/generalize gdb breakpoint
adjustment") from Linus' tree.

Lots of architectures do not use asm-generic/ptrace.h where
instruction_pointer_set() is defined.

I have reverted that commit for today.

This error was detected in our builds of the mmotm tree on May 14
(see http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/buildresult/4161286/).
