I am getting hundreds of the same build warnings on this release -
usually I get none - typical warnings:

include/linux/sched.h:1691: warning: ?pid_alive? declared inline after
being called
include/linux/sched.h:1691: warning: previous declaration of ?pid_alive?
was here

Info:

Machine AMD64
gcc version 4.2.4

Any more info required please CC me.

OK, revisiting this between decorating, changing line 1691 in
include/linux/sched.h to reflect 'inline':

from:
static int pid_alive(const struct task_struct *p);

to:
static inline int pid_alive(const struct task_struct *p);

stops GCC yelling at me.
