I just redid the "whole sheband" (patch/config/compile/run) 2 times - nothing
complains about fs/buffer.c. (I'm using mandrake 9.1 as the base).
The number of things that can and might interfere at compilation stage is too
big to go deep into details (however running make menuconfig; make dep;make
clean sometimes does the miracles).
The immediate remedy that should work for this version of patch (if you are
not planning to use software suspend) would be add #ifdefs:
buffer.c 3102:
for (::) {
+#ifdef CONFIG_SOFTWARE_SUSPEND
DECLARE_SWSUSP_LOCAL_VAR;
+#endif
....
I'm planning to redo the whole patch set to make them more friendly to each
other;) - for example adding appropriate empty strings into #include sections of
files reduced "manual adjustment" to vserver-1.20 from 15 files to 5 (and may be
write some small "Be friendly to each other" kernel patchers article) but that will
take time.
