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

Hi all,

After merging the akpm tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc64_defconfig) failed like this:

arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_64_mmu_radix.c: In function 'debugfs_radix_read':
arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_64_mmu_radix.c:1226:8: error: unused variable 'pgd' [-Werror=unused-variable]
 1226 |  pgd_t pgd, *pgdp;
      |        ^~~
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

Caused by commit

  cad54c147231 ("powerpc: add support for folded p4d page tables")

I applied the following fix patch:
