So I don't think the <asm/cpuid.h> change is needed - the header still
fully exists:
starship:~/tip> ls -lh arch/x86/include/asm/cpuid/api.h arch/x86/include/asm/cpuid.h
-rw-rw-r-- 1 mingo mingo 6.1K May 16 09:34 arch/x86/include/asm/cpuid/api.h
-rw-rw-r-- 1 mingo mingo 149 May 16 09:34 arch/x86/include/asm/cpuid.h
And the <linux/sysfs.h> addition is probably a build fix for the PM
tree? The <asm/cpuid.h> header's indirect header dependencies did not
change. Should probably not be carried in -next, as this masks a build
failure that will then trigger in Linus's tree?
(Unless I'm missing something that is.)
Thanks,
Ingo
