Subject: [2.6 PATCH] Export invalidate_mapping_pages() to modules.

Hi Linus and Andrew,

Please apply below patch which exports invalidate_mapping_pages() to 
modules.  It makes no sense to me to export invalidate_inode_pages() and 
not invalidate_mapping_pages() and I actually need 
invalidate_mapping_pages() because of its range specification ability...

It would be great if this could make it into 2.6.20!

Thanks a lot in advance!

Best regards,

	Anton
