This actually happened when I tried manually applying the Ubuntu patches before you mentioned you're maintaining this repository, so it's not unique to 3.17.7. Trying to compile the kernel with AppArmor enabled results in a failure:

  CC      security/apparmor/mount.o
security/apparmor/mount.c: In function 'aa_umount':
security/apparmor/mount.c:546:9: error: invalid initializer
  struct path path = { mnt, mnt->mnt_root };
         ^
security/apparmor/mount.c:546:9: error: (near initialization for 'path.<anonymous>')
scripts/Makefile.build:257: recipe for target 'security/apparmor/mount.o' failed

This can be fixed by assigning the elements of "path" one by one and using a less ambiguous name, like this:

        struct path pth;
        pth.mnt = mnt;
        pth.dentry = mnt->mnt_root;

And replacing other "path" in the umount function with "pth" or whatever else the renamed variable is.

I'm using GCC x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-4.8.3 Hardened profile.
