This inclusion breaks `make headers_check'.

Please always at least test allmodconfig builds before releasing a
patchset.  Additional hints are in Documentation/SubmitChecklist.

+static __inline__ void mtrr_save_state (void)
+{
+	if (smp_processor_id() == 0)
+		mtrr_save_fixed_ranges(NULL);
+	else
+		smp_call_function_single(0, mtrr_save_fixed_ranges, NULL, 1, 1);
+}

- Please use inline, not __inline__

- No space before the (

- We should uninline this function

  - It is not performance critical

  - It is probably too large to be inlined anwyay

  - It uses a lot of tricky stuff which requires a lot of header files.


From: Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org>

Fix `make headers_check'.
