To: submit@bugs.parisc-linux.org

Hello, 

I am running LiS on Linux/parsic. The streams kernel
module uses the strncpy_from_user function which on
parisc is macro that calls lstrncpy_from_user. This
function is not exported by the kernel, so the module
gets an unresolved symbol. The following patch fixes
this.
