Oh-oh, cciss patch #2 requires commit 3ce4e86 ("PCI/MSI: Add
pci_enable_msi_exact() and pci_enable_msix_exact()") which was
pulled to 3.14-rc4 only. Sorry for failing to clarify that :(

And I also notice 3111cc3 ("skd: Use pci_enable_msix_exact() instead
of pci_enable_msix_range()") in your tree also should not compile :(
