Maybe some config option changed ...

Perhaps GENERIC_HARDIRQS_NO_DEPRECATED?

Yep, that has been turned on for powerpc now.  I guess you will have the
same problem on sparc64 of you merge the net-next and sparc trees ...

Yeah, powerpc alone compiles with GENERIC_HARDIRQS_NO_DEPRECATED as it
does not have that notify commit.

If you add net which has that notify commit, but not the fix it
breaks. I wonder whether Dave should pick that fix into net.

So, if you merge the commit 1fb0ef31f428 ("genirq: Fix affinity notifier
fallout") from the tip tree, you will get exactly one new commit and will
fix your tree properly with no adverse effect on anyone else.
