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

Hi Greg,

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

drivers/staging/ramster/zcache-main.c:2969:2: error: unknown field 'invalidate_page' specified in initializer
drivers/staging/ramster/zcache-main.c:2969:2: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type [enabled by default]

drivers/staging/ramster/zcache-main.c:1002:13: warning: 'ramster_remotify_init' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]

I do wonder if any of this was build tested with CONFIG_CLEANCACHE enabled ...

Caused by commit 19ee3ef5f4bb ("staging: ramster: local compression + tmem").

I have used the staging tree from next-20120215 for today.
