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

Hi all,

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

mm/gup.c: In function 'gup_pte_range':
mm/gup.c:904:3: error: conversion to non-scalar type requested
   pte_t pte = ACCESS_ONCE(*ptep);
   ^
mm/gup.c: In function '__get_user_pages_fast':
mm/gup.c:1194:3: error: conversion to non-scalar type requested
   pgd_t pgd = ACCESS_ONCE(*pgdp);
   ^

Caused by commit 4bcad5b3b3ea ("powerpc: Make STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS a
config option").

I have reverted that commit for today.
