Namely, this series changing it to an int from an u8. http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2013-June/179367.html I am running into this error right now, and noticed that linux-next still seems to use u8's, as this series seems to have been dropped. I didn't see anything that suggested that this was on purpose, but I wanted to find out if there was a reason this was dropped or if it just got forgotten about (I haven't found a V3 which should have addressed fixing all the get_parent return values yet). -rhyland -- nvpublic
