Hmm. I can't reproduce the compile error. I am using cross-compile on
x86_64 and tried with mipsel-linux-gnu-gcc-4.7 and
mips-linux-gnu-gcc-4.7 both. I tried it on linux-next Nov 20th as well
as the latest linux-3.4.y

What am I missing? Is gcc4.7 older and doesn't show the problem? I think
I am missing something very obvious.

I generated config with
ARCH=mips make defconfig
and then compiled with
ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=mips-linux-gnu- make all

and
ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=mipsel-linux-gnu- make all

I would like to reproduce it first and then apply the patch to verify on
linux-3.4 and later stables.

thanks,
