Well, I'm in same position than you, but having problems.
I also asked about the necesity of raw-io patches (specifically for
2.2.19) but till the moment no answer.

Well, I patched kernel with raw-io for 2.2.18, and then with the lvm
patch provided by ./configure then make at PATCHES, but my kernel didn't
compile (well, the kernel did, but the make modules failed).

So, from your experience I'm going to try to compile *without* the
raw-io patch and see what happens.  Anyway, since I know that at least
your compilation was ended with success, would you be kind enough to
e-mail me your configuration file (/usr/src/linux/.config) to look for
differencies?

And, if you know about the reason or necesity (or lack of) the raw-io
patch stuff, please post it to the list, so others like will know.
TIA
