I'll proceed, assuming that the patch fixes the above build errors.

i didn't mean code *in the kernel* necessarily, merely code
representing out-of-tree loadable drivers that will now need to
include sched.h that didn't need it before.  such as that very example
out of LDD3.

sorry that i wasn't more clear about that.

this is the last known to me bit of compile breakage that was caused by
commit e8edc6e03a5c8562dc70a6d969f732bdb355a7e7 aka
"[PATCH] Detach sched.h from mm.h"

And after you'll check diffstat and build current kernel for different archs
yourself, I hope you'll take that "all over the place" back.

P.S.: Al may know more because he is building different set of configs, but I
  was larted about frv only.

  i actually asked about this on either the janitors or newbies list
the other day -- one of the early examples from the LDD3 device
drivers book which built fine all this time suddenly stopped building,
until i explicitly included  to be able to dereference
a pointer to "task_struct":

/home/rpjday/AMD/k/topics/0_hi/hi1.c:15: error: dereferencing pointer to 
incomplete type
/home/rpjday/AMD/k/topics/0_hi/hi1.c:16: error: dereferencing pointer to 
incomplete type

  clearly, until now, that header file was being picked up
*somewhere*, but not now.  so i'm guessing there's going to be code
all over the place that suddenly needs to add that inclusion of
sched.h.
