lo lo,

I'm trying to compile 2.6.32.60 with gcc 4.7.2, and getting the
following error:

  CC      arch/x86/kernel/ptrace.o

make: *** [arch/x86] Error 2

My environment looks like:

Linux 3.2.30, glibc 2.16, gcc 4.7.2

If I comment out the ancient line, kernel compiles fine.

Willy says:

| The affected entry is only used there :

| arch/x86/include/asm/ptrace.h:extern void syscall_trace_leave(struct pt_regs *);
| arch/x86/include/asm/thread_info.h:/* work to do in syscall_trace_leave() */
| arch/x86/kernel/entry_32.S:     ENABLE_INTERRUPTS(CLBR_ANY)     # could let syscall_trace_leave() call
| arch/x86/kernel/entry_32.S:     call syscall_trace_leave
| arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S:     call syscall_trace_leave
| arch/x86/kernel/ptrace.c:asmregparm void syscall_trace_leave(struct pt_regs *regs)

| So if the two calls above don't need the include then maybe we can
| safely remove it.
