Tony, can you tell me if the patch below fixes your build?
Thanks!

Subject: [PATCH] tracing/syscalls: use a dedicated file header
Impact: fix a build error on IA64
(fix for 2.6.30)
Building a kernel on ia64 might trigger the following crash:
CC arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.o
In file included from arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.c:55:
arch/ia64/ia32/ia32priv.h:290:1: warning: "elf_check_arch" redefined
In file included from include/linux/elf.h:7,
from include/linux/module.h:14,
from include/linux/ftrace.h:8,
from include/linux/syscalls.h:68,
from arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.c:18:
/home/aegl/generic-smp/arch/ia64/include/asm/elf.h:19:1: warning: this
is the location of the previous definition
In file included from arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.c:55:
arch/ia64/ia32/ia32priv.h:295:1: warning: "ELF_CLASS" redefined
In file included from include/linux/elf.h:7,
from include/linux/module.h:14,
from include/linux/ftrace.h:8,
from include/linux/syscalls.h:68,
from arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.c:18:
sys_ia32.c includes linux/syscalls.h which in turn includes linux/ftrace.h
to import the syscalls tracing prototypes.
But including ftrace.h can pull too much things for a low level file,
especially on ia64 where the ia32 private headers conflict with higher level
headers.
Now we isolate the syscall tracing headers in their own lightweight file.
