This is caused by a function returning 'const int', which doesn't
make sense to gcc. Drop 'const' to fix the problem.
This breaks the 64-bit build:
arch/powerpc/kernel/smp.c:764:2: error: initialization from incompatible
pointer type [-Werror]
arch/powerpc/kernel/smp.c:764:2: error: (near initialization for
'powerpc_topology[0].sd_flags') [-Werror]
It appears that the generic definition in sched.h has this function
defined as const int, so that needs to be fixed too along with all
instances in all archs.
