2.6.30-rc2 to -rc1 regression on arm

[Pavel Machek]

...it now fails to compile in arch/arm/kernel/sys_oabi-compat.c ,
complaining about missing prototypes for kmalloc/kfree.

I guess it should be easy to fix.

This is already fixed in post rc2:

    [ARM] 5453/1: fix building breakage of sys_oabi-compat.c due to missing kmalloc/kfree

    It seems that declarations of kmalloc/kfree are missed, explicitly
    include it.
