This is due to a mismerge (in linux-next) between commit
dc966984f44f16b8bb6b0644e501c7c2163ead69 ("ARM: Allow SMP kernels to boot
on UP systems") from the arm tree (which renamed PMD_FLAGS to
PMD_FLAGS_UP) and commit b7bc5d9c6556e3ca37176784036380f91b53432c ("arm:
mm: add proc info for ARM11MPCore/Cortex-A9 from ARM") from the msm tree
(which added a new use of PMD_FLAGS).

I will add the above patch as a merge fixup to my tree until the msm tree
gets merged into the arm tree (or vice versa or they both are merged into
Linus' tree).

Thanks for the heads up.
