I've fixed this up already in the ext4 tree.  The problem is that you
defined the function ext4_get_group_number() as "inline", but the
function body was only in fs/ext4/balloc.c.  I have no idea why gcc
wasn't complaining about this on x86, but the fix was to simply
declare the function as "extern", not as "inline".
