Subject: Compilation of pktgen fails for ARCH=um

Hi,

compiling the packet generator (NET_PKTGEN) for ARCH=um does not work.

Since commit 43d28b6515a6ea580a198df3e253e88236f08978 (pktgen: increasing 
transmission granularity), function spin(...) uses ndelay(...), which is not 
implemented for uml.

Should pktgen be disabled for uml?
Or should ndelay be an empty macro? (in arch/um/include/asm/delay.h)

Regards,
Christoph
