Hi Eric,

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

In file included from include/linux/kobject.h:21:0,
                 from include/linux/device.h:17,

                 from arch/powerpc/mm/fault.c:24:

include/linux/sysfs.h:314:2: error: 'return' with a value, in function 
returning void [-Werror]
  return 0;
  ^

and many more :-(

Caused by commit f7e299595408 ("sysfs: Add support for permanently
empty directories to serve as mount points.").

I have added the following fix patch for today:
