Oops, this seems to be my fault. Find the fix below.

As I stated in the original commit, this was tested with 'make
headers_check', so I can only guess that it's a merge fall-out.

Adrian Bunk pointed it out in my original submission, which is
why it was explicitly tested... But I just tested it again, and
why doesn't make headers_check catch it?

Sorry :-/

Subject: [PATCH] x86: don't leak X86_VM_MASK in processor-flags.h

Apparently,

commit 6330a30a76c1e62d4b4ec238368957f8febf9113
Author: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@gmail.com>
Date:   Wed May 28 09:46:19 2008 +0200

    x86: break mutual header inclusion

introduced some CONFIG names to processor-flags.h, which was exported in

commit 6093015db2bd9e70cf20cdd23be1a50733baafdd
Author: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
Date:   Sun Mar 30 11:45:23 2008 +0200

    x86: cleanup replace most vm86 flags with flags from processor-flags.h, fix

Fix it by wrapping the CONFIG parts in __KERNEL__.
