I iterated through the 3.0 patch queue with i386/allmodconfig, and got
to:

Applying patch ifb-fix-rcu_sched-self-detected-stalls.patch
patching file drivers/net/ifb.c

Now at patch ifb-fix-rcu_sched-self-detected-stalls.patch

I think this patch needs to add a '#include <linux/sched.h>', but that
header is being included indirectly in some other configurations (and in
mainline).

With that change, I can apply the remaining patches and compile
3.0.88-rc1 successfully.
