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

Hi all,

After merging the net tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc64_defconfig) failed like this:

kernel/irq/manage.c: In function 'irq_affinity_notify':
kernel/irq/manage.c:182: error: 'struct irq_desc' has no member named 'affinity'

Caused by commit cd7eab44e994 ("genirq: Add IRQ affinity notifiers")
(which is also in the tip tree).  I am guessing that there is a fix for
this also in the tip tree ... yep commit 1fb0ef31f428 ("genirq: Fix
affinity notifier fallout").

I tried using the net tree from next-20110311 for today but that had the
same problem.  So I merged the above fix commit from the tip tree.

I have no idea why this has suddenly become a problem in the net tree.
