It looks like 4e64dbe226e7 was merged for v4.6-rc1.  Does that mean
this build error has been there that long?  Is there another, more
recent commit that actually broke this?

I suspect something broke in the v4.11 merge window, so I'm fishing
for a commit from that window so I can include this for v4.11.
