Subject: [PATCH] mm snapshot broken-out-2007-11-06-02-32 - conflict in vxfs_iget ()

Hi Andrew,

The kernel build fails on S390, with error 

 CC [M]  fs/freevxfs/vxfs_inode.o
fs/freevxfs/vxfs_inode.c:298: error: conflicting types for 'vxfs_iget'
fs/freevxfs/vxfs_extern.h:61: error: previous declaration of 'vxfs_iget' was here
fs/freevxfs/vxfs_inode.c:298: error: conflicting types for 'vxfs_iget'
fs/freevxfs/vxfs_extern.h:61: error: previous declaration of 'vxfs_iget' was here
make[2]: *** [fs/freevxfs/vxfs_inode.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [fs/freevxfs] Error 2
make: *** [fs] Error 2

This error is caused by iget-stop-freevxfs-from-using-iget-and-read_inode.patch,
where the function proto type is declared as 
vxfs_iget(struct super_block *, unsigned long) and defined as 
vxfs_iget(struct super_block *sbp, ino_t ino)

This patch has been tested for the buid failure.
