Anyone know how to fix the build error?

Ignore the 3.5 I patched up from there.

No PRIME power management?

Hopefully it'll merge soon. 3.8 is so far away.

I managed to fix my build error with just:

touch include/uapi/linux/irqnr.h

It seems that it needs the file to exist and fails build without it, but for some reason my patch isn't creating an empty file, which apparently it's meant to do with the --git parameter..

"

is in the path file.
