Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the final tree (watchdog
 tree related)

Hi all,

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

drivers/watchdog/watchdog_core.c: In function 'watchdog_register_device':
drivers/watchdog/watchdog_core.c:109:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'IS_ERR' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
drivers/watchdog/watchdog_core.c:112:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'PTR_ERR' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

Caused by commit e3b97a7eb87d ("watchdog: create all the proper device
files").

I have applied this fixup patch for today:
