Hi Caz,

I think commit ...

commit 8d49751580db804a02caf6a5b7cebe2ff26c0d7e
Author: Caz Yokoyama <Caz.Yokoyama@intel.com>
Date:   Thu Sep 5 16:42:39 2013 -0700

     Sample Implementation of Intel MIC User Space Daemon.

... actually triggers a build error on my default config
ppc64 (I'm using net-next tree):
