Hi Jens,

[I merged the block tree *before* the aio-direct tree today ...]

After merging the block tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc64_defconfig) failed like this:

In file included from include/linux/blkdev.h:18:0,

I am not quite sure which commit caused this (maybe ed2d2f9a8265 ("block:
Abstract out bvec iterator")?). I have used the block tree from
next-20131031 again for today.
