| | Cyrill,
| | 
| | randconfig testing in x86.git found a build bug and i bisected it to 
| | your patch - output is below. Config attached. Looks like some config 
| | file dependency hell problem? The dependencies there definitely need a 
| | good look and a handful of cleanups as well.

| Argh! Ingo, it seems that the real problem was introdused by

| 
| with this patch we have <asm/vm86.h> included only
| if __i386__ defined *BUT* X86_VM_MASK is tried to be
| used *without* __386__ being checked (as example - ptrace.h:user_mode_vm).
| I'm not sure how to properly hanle this situation. But will take a look.
| 
| So I suggest you drop my last patch (which moves X86_VM_MASK
| into __KERNEL__ section) for a while. I'll recheck all
| this stuff later (too busy now).
