Against exactly what?  ;-)

Hmmm....  Builds without errors in my local tree.

Make a clone of linux-next...

OK, now I get a different build failure:

/home/paulmck/public_git/linux-next/drivers/tty/sysrq.c:514: undefined reference to `rcu_sysrq_start'
/home/paulmck/public_git/linux-next/drivers/tty/sysrq.c:558: undefined reference to `rcu_sysrq_end'

This is due to Rik's "#include <linux/rcupdate.h>" getting lost somehow.
This #include is needed in drivers/tty/sysrq.c.

But maybe I need to be using some other branch of linux-next.  Am currently
on 5bd4e10b96ce20271688aa31d8bd739441249152, which is origin/master.  And
is also next-20140428.  If I should be somewhere else, please let me know.

OK, it also appears that my change to make TINY_RCU work is also missing,
possibly because Randy applied it by hand.

Please see below for a patch against next-20140428 that makes this build
for me.  This is derived from Rik's patch, my patch, and is consistent with
Arnd's patch.

							Thanx, Paul
