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

Hi all,

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

Caused by patch

  "mm/memory.c: add vm_insert_pages()"

sparc32 does not implement pte_index at all :-(

I have added the following patch for today.  This may not be correct
or enough.

Subject: [PATCH] arch/sparc: add a definition of pte_index for the 32 bit kernel

This is now needed for vm_insert_pages()
