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

Hi Andrew,

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

fs/namei.c: In function 'path_openat':
fs/namei.c:2874:4: error: 'filp' undeclared (first use in this function)

Caused by patch "fs: add link restrictions" from the akpm tree
interacting with (at least) commit 4066cd545681 ("vfs: remove open
intents from nameidata") from the vfs tree.

I don't know how to fix this, so I have reverted the akpm patch for today
(in the hope that someone else will fix it).
