Subject: linux-next: build failure in Linus' tree

Hi Linus,

While building Linus' tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc64_defconfig) failed like this:

In file included from include/asm-generic/bug.h:5:0,
                 from arch/powerpc/include/asm/bug.h:127,
                 from arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.S:31:
include/linux/kernel.h:44:0: warning: "ALIGN" redefined [enabled by default]
include/linux/linkage.h:57:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition
include/linux/sysinfo.h: Assembler messages:
include/linux/sysinfo.h:7: Error: Unrecognized opcode: `struct'
include/linux/sysinfo.h:8: Error: Unrecognized opcode: `__kernel_long_t'

And it went downhill from there :-(

Caused by commit 3777808873b0 ("bug.h: need linux/kernel.h for
TAINT_WARN") which, unfortunately never made it into linux-next.

I have reverted that commit for today (which presumably means that sh
builds will be broken again).
