Subject: [s390] 2.6.29-git4 build failure.

2.6.29-git4 build failed on s390 box with

CC drivers/char/sysrq.o
In file included from drivers/char/sysrq.c:38:
include/linux/irq.h: In function 'init_alloc_desc_masks':
include/linux/irq.h:434: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
include/linux/irq.h:435: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
include/linux/irq.h:446: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
include/linux/irq.h:448: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type

Seems like Heiko had already submitted a patch to fix this.

The above mentioned defconfig build failure can still be
recreated with 2.6.29-git8 release.

Looks like the patch[1] to fix this failure still hasn't made
it's way into Linus tree.
