After bisecting, the real commit for build error is:
caa7dcde7c424cdc81698a6e4e48072eb67ec67e
    module: relocate module_init from init.h to module.h

My patch seems valid although the reason in commit msg should be updated:

cc1: some warnings being treated as errors
make[2]: *** [drivers/cpufreq/exynos-cpufreq.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [drivers/cpufreq] Error 2

Build error happens on gcc version 4.6.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5)
and was introduced in next tree by commit caa7dcde7c42 (module: relocate
module_init from init.h to module.h).
