Thanks, Arnd. Tested on top of 1eccf02fb8d5 with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y:
CONFIG_RT_MUTEXES=y: build passes CONFIG_RT_MUTEXES=n: fails without this patch, passes with it The failure is in tree_stall.h, where rt_mutex_owner() is used before tree_plugin.h includes rtmutex_common.h. This matches the reported failure, and the added include fixes it.
