Hello List.
I found with help of valdis [at] irc://##ker...@chat.freenode.net this
commit in Kernel tree:
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=a188222b6ed29404ac2d4232d35d1fe0e77af370
So I applied (And did a basic sanity check in the source) the patch in h
ttps://gist.github.com/leleobhz/2e92e11e4423536aa9da (Since im using DKMS,
the dkms.conf is more or less like https://gist.github.com/b8cdc1e38a02a78
f1c5e)
Since I hope upstream fixes it, ill not fix this dkms file for next builds.
Results: http://pastebin.com/RpwuhDFU
So there is a thing to change to next version. Perhaps a compilation option
to select used function using ifdef or something else (Since I'm not a
profissional developer, may I wrong in this comment). Anyways, thanks to
the messages tryting to help and there is some way for people that uses
this module in newer kernels.
Thanks!
