Hi Al,

Today's linux-next build (powerpc ppc64_defconfig) failed like this:

fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_export.c: In function 'xfs_fs_get_parent':
fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_export.c:201: error: incompatible type for argument 1 of 'd_obtain_alias'

Due to commit 8ee6b8fff20962d17a008e230006e48c7f79ade4 ("[PATCH] switch
all filesystems over to d_obtain_alias") from the vfs tree interacting
with commit 7836dda725873a5ce05d216295a452f16ccaab72 ("[XFS] Combine the
XFS and Linux inodes") from the xfs tree.

I must admit I am wondering why I am only seeing this error at this late
stage (the xfs commit is dated October 17) ...

I fixed it up by applying the following patch (which may be incorrect).
