Here's an updated patch.

# Randy, I dropped your Ack because there's a major change on this version.
# Would you mind looking at it, please?

next-20150515 fails to build on i386 with the following error:

  mm/built-in.o: In function `action_result':
  memory-failure.c:(.text+0x344a5): undefined reference to 
`__tracepoint_memory_failure_event'
  memory-failure.c:(.text+0x344d5): undefined reference to 
`__tracepoint_memory_failure_event'
  memory-failure.c:(.text+0x3450c): undefined reference to 
`__tracepoint_memory_failure_event'

The root cause of this error is the lack of dependency between CONFIG_RAS and
CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE.
"CONFIG_RAS=n and CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE=y" can happen on 32-bit systems with
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM=n (and all other dependencies of CONFIG_RAS from ACPI_EXTLOG/
PCIEAER/EDAC are false), but that's not supposed to happen.
