Hi all,

Today's linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig) fails like this:

fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_buf.c: In function 'xfs_buf_lock_value':
fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_buf.c:889: error: request for member 'counter' in 
something not a structure or union

The commit 64ac24e738823161693bf791f87adc802cf529ff ("Generic semaphore
implementation") in Linus' tree changed the count in a semaphore from
atomic_t to int.  I applied the following patch which is clearly not
correct but builds.
