Caused by:

  1ba0c7d: fs/compat_ioctl: fix build when !BLOCK

fixed by the patch below. The build error itself triggers with 
!BLOCK

A change to the order of header files in fs/compat_ioctl.c
unearthed a dormant header file dependency bug:

  In file included from fs/compat_ioctl.c:105:
  include/linux/pktcdvd.h:285: error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before ‘mempool_t’

pktcdvd.h relies on mempool_t but does not include mempool.h.
This worked until now accidentally: due to other headers including
mempool.h in compat_ioctl.c (and all other pktcdvd.h using sites).
But once the header file broke this implicit dependency got
uncovered and an uncleanliness turned into a build failure.

Add mempool.h to pktcdvd.h.

[ Impact: fix build on !CONFIG_BLOCK ]
