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

Hi Paul,

After merging the moduleh tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

arch/x86/kernel/sys_x86_64.c:28:10: warning: 'enum align_flags' declared inside parameter list
arch/x86/kernel/sys_x86_64.c:28:10: warning: its scope is only this definition or declaration, which is probably not what you want

Presumably caused by commit dfb09f9b7ab0 ("x86, amd: Avoid cache aliasing
penalties on AMD family 15h") from the tip tree interacting with the
module.h split up.

I applied the following patch (which could be applied to the tip
tree ...).

Subject: [PATCH] x86, amd: include linux/elf.h since we use stuff from
 asm/elf.h

The lack of this inclusion causes build erros after the module.h split up:
