Hi Sam,
I don't believe this would have been a problem had Suse not shipped a
pre-release bleeding edge kernel which has not even made its way to
kernel.org. COrrect me if I am wrong on that.
I think the interface has not been changed so that builds wont fail
but driver errors such as these will force all driver authors/3rd
party folks to change to the new way.
thanks,
Murali

Interesting.  The error message they have could be nicer.  Its
strange that they keep the parameter in the function and allow it to
fail at runtime, instead of removing it and making it fail at compile
time.  Changing function prototypes in the kernel from version to
version hasn't seemed like a big deal to the kernel developers, which
can be a pain, but they should at least be consistent.
