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

Hi Christoph,

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

In file included from drivers/base/cpu.c:16:0:
include/linux/acpi.h:744:16: error: unknown type name 'guid_t'
          const guid_t *guid,
                ^

Caused by commit

  94116f8126de ("ACPI: Switch to use generic guid_t in acpi_evaluate_dsm()")

linux/uuid.h is only include for the CONFIG_ACPI case (in commit
41c8bdb3ab10 "acpi, nfit: Switch to use new generic UUID API").  This
build does not have CONFIG_ACPI set.

I have used the uuid tree from next-20170607 for today.
