sys-power/phc-intel-0.3.2.12.16 should be masked incompatible with Kernel >= 3.7, since it doesn't compile with it.

According to http://www.linux-phc.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=267&start=30, phc-intel-0.3.2.12.16 is compatible with kernel 3.17 and doesn't need an additional patch.
You wrote 3.7 where you intended 3.17?
(In reply to Jeroen Roovers from comment #2) > You wrote 3.7 where you intended 3.17? Yes, I meant 3.17. I played around a bit, and by just applying the 3.16 patches and compiling against 3.17 I could get the module to build and work.

Created attachment 393570 [details] ebuild compiling and working on kernel <= 3.17 Here's my ebuild which compiles and loads on kernel 3.17.7.
