Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the final tree (staging
 tree related)

Hi all,

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

drivers/staging/rtl8192e/rtl_core.c: In function 'rtl8192_init_priv_variable':
drivers/staging/rtl8192e/rtl_core.c:1270:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'vmalloc'
drivers/staging/rtl8192e/rtl_core.c:1270:20: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size
drivers/staging/rtl8192e/rtl_core.c: In function 'rtl8192_pci_disconnect':
drivers/staging/rtl8192e/rtl_core.c:3101:4: error: implicit declaration of function 'vfree'

Caused by commit 94a799425eee ("rom: wlanfae <wlanfae@...ltek.com>"
really "[PATCH 1/8] rtl8192e: Import new version of driver from realtek").

I have applied this patch for today:

From: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@...b.auug.org.au>

Subject: [PATCH] staging/rtl8192e: using vmalloc/vfree requires including
 vmalloc.h
