Subject: "attempt to move .org backwards" still show up

Hi all

I get an error message when I compile the source code in Power7 platform
use the newest upstream kernel.

[root@...g linux]# make -j60
CHK include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h
CHK include/generated/utsrelease.h
CC scripts/mod/devicetable-offsets.s
GEN scripts/mod/devicetable-offsets.h

backwards
make[1]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.o] Error 1
make: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel] Error 2
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

and I see this should be fixed by the commit:
087aa036eb79f24b856893190359ba812b460f45

But it still failed in my P7 machine.

the kernel source code info:

Merge branch 'upstream' of
git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/ralf/upstream-linus

Pull MIPS fix from Ralf Baechle:
"Revert the change of the definition of PAGE_MASK which was prettier
but broke a few relativly rare platforms"

* 'upstream' of git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/ralf/upstream-linus:
Revert "MIPS: page.h: Provide more readable definition for PAGE_MASK."

[root@...g linux]# git branch
* master
[root@...g linux]# git diff
[root@...g linux]#

Thant means I have done nothing with the kernel

Thanks
Mike
