Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the v4l-dvb tree

Hi Mauro,

After merging the scsi-post-merge tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
allyesconfig) failed like this:

drivers/media/dvb/ngene/ngene-core.c: In function 'ngene_release_buffers':
drivers/media/dvb/ngene/ngene-core.c:1443: error: implicit declaration of function 'vfree'
drivers/media/dvb/ngene/ngene-core.c: In function 'ngene_get_buffers':
drivers/media/dvb/ngene/ngene-core.c:1454: error: implicit declaration of function 'vmalloc'
drivers/media/dvb/ngene/ngene-core.c:1454: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast
drivers/media/dvb/ngene/ngene-core.c:1461: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast
drivers/media/dvb/ngene/ngene-core.c:1467: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast
drivers/media/dvb/ngene/ngene-core.c: In function 'ngene_probe':
drivers/media/dvb/ngene/ngene-core.c:1836: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast

Caused by commit b54c755d6263efe376f3dfc8c72c8e7b4fb4f4c1 ("V4L/DVB:
ngene: Initial check-in").

I added the following patch for today.
