[uml-devel] 2.4 do_mmap_pgoff compile problem

[Peter <peter.spamcatcher@rimuhosting.com>]

linux-2.4.27.tar.bz2 + uml-2.4.27-bs2-pre6.patch.bz2 patches with no 
error.  But I get the error below compile.  It seems like the UML code 
is passing in a mm as the first arg and the only definitions of 
`do_mmap_pgoff' I can find start with a file arg and have no mm.  I 
dropped the mm arg in the code, and it then compiles OK.  But segfaults 
immediately on use.  I'm not sure if that is caused by my code change or 
not.

BTW: what is the current recommendation for a 'stable' 2.4 UML guest kernel?

Regards, Peter
