Yes, I saw that error in -mm and I agree that renaming is right; about the 
other one, the reported fix (below) is correct; also, it would be nice to 
delete include/asm-um/bitops.h (which includes the i386 version of the 
include; since those funcs were moved to out-of-line ones, the trick must be 
done that way).

Note however that we must not hardcode that we steel things from i386 arch, 
but we must use $(SUBARCH) - or it will break for any other archs (the only 
working one, at the moment, is the x86_64 one).
