meanwhile I suppose someone should fix the error ;)


From: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>

mips:

In file included from arch/mips/include/asm/tlb.h:21,
                 from mm/pgtable-generic.c:9:
include/asm-generic/tlb.h: In function `tlb_flush_mmu':
include/asm-generic/tlb.h:76: error: implicit declaration of function `release_pages'
include/asm-generic/tlb.h: In function `tlb_remove_page':
include/asm-generic/tlb.h:105: error: implicit declaration of function `page_cache_release'

free_pages_and_swap_cache() and free_page_and_swap_cache() are macros
which call release_pages() and page_cache_release().  The obvious fix is
to include pagemap.h in swap.h, where those macros are defined.  But that
breaks sparc for weird reasons.

So fix it within mm/pgtable-generic.c instead.
