This occurs when I try to build a PowerPC (MPC5200) kernel:

[...]
In file included from kernel/sched.c:1318:
kernel/sched.c: In function 'sched_init':
kernel/sched.c:7702: error: implicit declaration of function 'global_rt_runtime'
[...]

And when I'm using the patch from Uli Brueggemann to fix it, I get:

[...]
In file included from kernel/sched.c:1325:
kernel/sched_rt.c: In function 'inc_rt_tasks':
kernel/sched_rt.c:290: error: 'struct rq' has no member named 'online'
[...]

Any hints?
