Hi all,

After merging the rcu tree, today's linux-next build (sparc defconfig)
failed like this:

mm/slab_common.o: In function `kmem_last_alloc':
slab_common.c:(.text+0xc4): undefined reference to `kmem_cache_last_alloc'

Caused by commit

f7c3fb4fc476 ("mm: Add kmem_last_alloc() to return last allocation for memory block")

in mm/slab.c, kmem_cache_last_alloc() is only defined when CONFIG_NUMA
is set - which is not for this build.

I applied the following hack fix patch for today.
