UFS defines SECTOR_SIZE and SECTOR_BITS in a fairly widely included header. This clashes with the defines in the private gdth.h header.
Perhaps the UFS guys could rename theirs to UFS_SECTOR_SIZE/BITS to fix the clash with the gdth code ?
Since I don't know if the "ufs guy" (singular, the person who implemented most of the new ufs code) listens here, and since I merged those bits in, I'll say feel free to submit a patch which does exactly this to Linus. We shouldn't be using such a common name in a global header file namespace.
