Try this patch. I haven't gotten a chance to really try it yet, but it
should at least get most of the kernel to build ok. Seems that they
removed a #define and changed a struct without globally changing the
instances of each :-(
Let me know if this works or not. I'm sure Alan's already gotten to this
stuff, but I can send it to him anyway if this does work...
