Subject: linux-next: build warning after merge of the pidfd-fixes tree

Hi all,

After merging the pidfd-fixes tree, today's linux-next build (arm
multi_v7_defconfig) produced this warning:

                 from include/linux/mm_types.h:11,
                 from include/linux/mmzone.h:21,

                 from include/linux/mm.h:10,
                 from kernel/pid.c:30:
kernel/pid.c: In function 'alloc_pid':
