This patch broke (-rc1):

sparc allnoconfig build
ia64 allnoconfig build
ppc64 allnoconfig build

x86_64 succeded an allnoconfig build

I did not try other architectures. We need to fix the allnoconfig cases
at least for the popular architectures before applying this patch
otherwise it will create too much trouble/noise.

linux-arch copied in the hope that the arch maintaines may try it out
and fix their issues.
