comedi doesn't build on several architectures

comedi doesn't build on several architectures

[David Miller]

It depends upon PAGE_KERNEL_NOCACHE which only a handful of
platforms define.

Really, enabling staging in Linus's tree with all this build fallout
was not the wisest.  It's blowing up all of my allmodconfig test
builds now.

Stick it to -next first next time.

It was (briefly :-() and I complained about build breakages.  There are
still some (as you have seen).  And lots of new warnings (which I am
ignoring mostly because there are so many warnings anyway).

See msgid <20110609172745.dfd3a298.sfr@canb.auug.org.au> on lkml from Jun 9.

Is staging supposed to compile on non-x86? I've done a lot of
ARM randconfig builds, but I just disabled all of staging using
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG because I didn't see the point.

Yes, sorry, I'm working on fixing them and will do so next week when I
return from vacation.

Linus wanted it now, and as it had been passing the 'randconfig' builds
by Randy and others for a long time, I figured it was safe to do this.

I'll get these resolved next week.
