That is strange. The patch removes a duplicate declaration of
resched_cpu (on lines 768, 954) of the file kernel/rcu/tree.c of the
latest git.

The patch compiles fine here with the latest tip of the git tree.

CC kernel/rcu/tree.o

Can you please check if your tree.c has two declarations for resched_cpu?
