Because there's already a `struct node' in include/linux/node.h.

This is because some random unrelated patch
(vmscan-unevictable-lru-scan-sysctl.patch) in -mm has caused
include/linux/node.h to get included in the fs/dlm/config.c build on
sparc32.

`struct node' was a poor choice of name!  Please rename it prior to the
2.6.27 release so that bisectability won't break if/when we merge
vmscan-unevictable-lru-scan-sysctl.patch.  Plus this bug might already
be present in mainline, only nobody has yet found the config which
triggers it.
