I installed gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi (4:4.7.2-1 from Ubuntu 14.04 LTS) and could
reproduce the ICE. I came up with the workaround below.
Does this work for you?

 gcc 4.7.3

With gcc version 4.7.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.3-12ubuntu1) :

    mm/migrate.c: In function ‘migrate_pages’:
    mm/migrate.c:1148:1: internal compiler error: in push_minipool_fix, at config/arm/arm.c:13500
    Please submit a full bug report,
    with preprocessed source if appropriate.
    See <file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-4.7/README.Bugs> for instructions.
    Preprocessed source stored into /tmp/ccPoM1tr.out file, please attach this to your bugreport.
    make[1]: *** [mm/migrate.o] Error 1
    make: *** [mm/migrate.o] Error 2

Mark unmap_and_move() (which is used in a single place only) "noinline"
to work around this compiler bug.
