Did you build from a GIT tree, from a tarball or patch?

include/uapi/linux/irqnr.h ended up a zero-length file in GIT as there was
nothing in the original file outside of the __KERNEL__ guards.  Indeed, if I
look in /usr/include/irqnr.h, I see:

	#ifndef _LINUX_IRQNR_H
	#define _LINUX_IRQNR_H

	/*
	 * Generic irq_desc iterators:
	 */

	#endif

I suspect somehow the file got deleted, even though the patch shows it:

	diff --git a/include/uapi/linux/irqnr.h b/include/uapi/linux/irqnr.h
	new file mode 100644
	index 000000000000..e69de29bb2d1
