SubjectRe: linux-next: build failure after merge of the final tree (hid tree related)
Hi Jiri, Stephen,

Wondering why x86 (32bit and 64bit) does not need to include the
header but other arches (at least powerpc) need it.

Any idea via which header linux/uaccess.h gets included on x86?
If nobody has checked by the time I get home I will determine that.

Thanks,
Bruno
