hm, cannot reproduce it here with linux-next-0702.

but ... this looks quite similar to an issue triggered by the
tip/x86/xen-64bit topic (and fixed by the patch below) - but that's not
in linux-next yet.

x86_64: fix non-paravirt compilation

Make sure SWAPGS and PARAVIRT_ADJUST_EXCEPTION_FRAME are properly
defined when CONFIG_PARAVIRT is off.

Fixes Ingo's build failure:

ok, i can see the same problem in linux-next-0703 and git-cherry-picking
the commit below fixes it. I have also pushed out a new version of
auto-generic-ipi-next which caused this problem.
