+Subject: [PATCH] i2c-i801: Include <linux/slab.h>
+
+commit 830e49925da933a9d9e4b0f86077066a368b47a1 upstream.
+
+Commit 5a0e3ad6af8660be21ca98a971cd00f331318c05 added direct inclusion
+of <linux/slab.h> to those source files that appeared to need it, but
+somehow missed this.  On most architectures <linux/slab.h> is still
+indirectly included, but there are exceptions such as alpha.
