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

Hi Al,

After merging the vfs tree, today's linux-next build (arm
multi_v7_defconfig) failed like this:

In file included from drivers/usb/core/devio.c:37:0:
drivers/usb/core/devio.c: In function 'usbdev_lseek':
include/linux/fs.h:898:36: error: 'PAGE_CACHE_SIZE' undeclared (first use in this function)
 #define MAX_LFS_FILESIZE (((loff_t)PAGE_CACHE_SIZE << (BITS_PER_LONG-1))-1)
                                    ^

  return no_seek_end_llseek(file, offset, orig, MAX_LFS_FILESIZE);

 }

Caused by commit

  41fb31e4f962 ("new helper: no_seek_end_llseek()")

PAGE_CACHE_SIZE is defined in linux/pagemap.h which is not included here.
I guess that adding the include to linux/fs.h may have other problems.

I have used the vfs tree from next-20151207 for today.
