Hi Li,

when I applied this patch to the kernel following error occurred.

fs/inotify_user.c: In function âsys_inotify_initâ:
fs/inotify_user.c:594: warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer
target type
fs/inotify_user.c:595: error: âstruct fileâ has no member named âf_pathâ
fs/inotify_user.c:596: error: âstruct fileâ has no member named âf_pathâ
fs/inotify_user.c:597: error: âstruct fileâ has no member named âf_pathâ
fs/inotify_user.c: In function âinotify_get_sbâ:
fs/inotify_user.c:701: error: too many arguments to function âget_sb_pseudoâ
fs/inotify_user.c:701: warning: return makes integer from pointer without a
cast
fs/inotify_user.c: At top level:
fs/inotify_user.c:706: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer
type
make[1]: *** [fs/inotify_user.o] Error 1
make: *** [fs] Error 2

regards,
NVN
