From: Sudip Mukherjee sudipm.mukherjee@gmail.com
commit 8ee912dab95f1483156b6e994004bfcc3158d798 upstream.
The build of alpha allmodconfig is giving error:
arch/alpha/include/asm/mmu_context.h: In function 'ev5_switch_mm': arch/alpha/include/asm/mmu_context.h:160:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'task_thread_info'; did you mean 'init_thread_info'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
The file 'mmu_context.h' needed an extra header file.
