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

Hi Andrew,

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

security/keys/big_key.c: In function 'big_key_free_buffer':
security/keys/big_key.c:146:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'vunmap'; did you mean 'kunmap'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
   vunmap(buf->virt);
   ^~~~~~
   kunmap
security/keys/big_key.c: In function 'big_key_alloc_buffer':
security/keys/big_key.c:187:14: error: implicit declaration of function 'vmap'; did you mean 'kmap'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
  buf->virt = vmap(buf->pages, buf->nr_pages, VM_MAP, PAGE_KERNEL);
              ^~~~
              kmap
security/keys/big_key.c:187:46: error: 'VM_MAP' undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean 'VM_SAO'?
  buf->virt = vmap(buf->pages, buf->nr_pages, VM_MAP, PAGE_KERNEL);
                                              ^~~~~~
                                              VM_SAO
security/keys/big_key.c:187:46: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in

Caused by commit

  d9f4bb1a0f4d ("KEYS: Use individual pages in big_key for crypto buffers")

in Linus' tree, but most likely exposed by commit

  e8bd5e5c63b6 ("headers: untangle kmemleak.h from mm.h")

in the akpm-current tree (kmemleak.h includes vmalloc.h).

I have added the following patch for today:

From: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@...b.auug.org.au>
Date: Mon, 26 Feb 2018 15:58:03 +1100
Subject: [PATCH] KEYS: include vmalloc.h for vmap etc

This was discovered after a patch that removed kmemleak.h from slab.h.

Fixes: d9f4bb1a0f4d ("KEYS: Use individual pages in big_key for crypto buffers")

Linus, is it worth putting this directly into your tree, or should it
just wait for the patch from Andrew's tree that exposes it?
