Kernel 3.13-rc - DreamPlug compile failure - PHYS_OFFSET undeclared

[robert]

Kernel 3.12.2 compiles and install/runs OK, but 3.13-rc1 and -rc2 (and
linux-next) compile fails, when configured for DreamPlug..

Steps to reproduce:
# make ......... kirkwood_defconfig
# make xconfig
Select 'General setup' / 'Embedded system'
Deselect 'Patch physical to virtual translations at runtime'
Set value of 'Physical address of main memory' to 0x0
(save config), then:
# make -j4
.....

make[1]: *** [arch/arm/kernel/asm-offsets.s] Error 1
make: *** [prepare0] Error 2

The error does not occur if 'Patch physical to virtual translations at
runtime' is _selected_, bu the resulting kernel will not boot on the
DreamPlug..

In case there was some odd problem with the cross-compiler, I have also
reproduced the problem compiling the kernel on the DreamPlug itself..

I have just discovered that this issue is already being addressed, in
the 'Build breakage from 'ARM: mm: use phys_addr_t appropriately in p2v
and v2p conversions' thread, from Nov 25.

Apologies for the noise..

Hi Robert

Thanks for letting us know it is fixed.
