Hi all,

After merging the final tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
allyesconfig) failed like this:

drivers/gpio/langwell_gpio.c: In function 'lnw_irq_handler':
drivers/gpio/langwell_gpio.c:210: error: 'struct irq_desc' has no member named 'chip'
drivers/gpio/langwell_gpio.c:211: error: 'struct irq_desc' has no member named 'chip'

Caused by commit 17b9f9e2653a ("powerpc: Enable
GENERIC_HARDIRQS_NO_DEPRECATED") enabling
CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS_NO_DEPRECATED for powerpc without previously
fixing up the above driver.

I have reverted that commit for today.

Except that the above driver has nothing to do with powerpc, it's some
Intel Moorestown stuff...

It should be fixed regardless I suppose, CC'ing Thomas.

I've had to make fixes to this driver in sparc64 allmodconfig builds
too :-)
