Too bad you forgot to build this patch after you applied it: CC init/main.o In file included from include/linux/security.h:39:0, from init/main.c:32: include/net/flow.h: In function ‘flow_key_size’: include/net/flow.h:174:3: error: size of unnamed array is negative include/net/flow.h:177:3: error: size of unnamed array is negative Please be kind to your poor over-worked stable kernel maintainer and do the decent thing and TEST YOUR PATCH before you ask him to accept it. bah, I think it's time for the weekend to start a bit earlier than normal... greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
