In kernels 2.5.1 and 2.5.2-pre11, I encountered the error

make CFLAGS="-D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/11pre-2.5.2k/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i686 -malign-functions=4 " -C arch/i386/kernel

when make'ing bzImage with ramdisks enabled, but initrd disabled. The attached
patch fixes that problem (by ungrouping ramdisk-related and initrd-enabled
variables in include/linux/blk.h).
