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

Hi Greg,

After merging the tty tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc64_defconfig) failed like this:

drivers/tty/n_tty.c: In function 'n_tty_close':
drivers/tty/n_tty.c:1757:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'vfree' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
  vfree(ldata);
  ^
drivers/tty/n_tty.c: In function 'n_tty_open':
drivers/tty/n_tty.c:1776:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'vmalloc' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
  ldata = vmalloc(sizeof(*ldata));
  ^
drivers/tty/n_tty.c:1776:8: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast [enabled by default]
  ldata = vmalloc(sizeof(*ldata));
        ^

Caused by commit 20bafb3d23d1 ("n_tty: Move buffers into n_tty_data").
Forgot to include linux/vmalloc.h?

I have used the tty tree from next-20130723 for today.
