Hello,
     The merge with upstream changeset: af5ca3f4ec5cc4432a42a73b050dd8898ce8fd00
broke building an external module against 2.6.23:

  CC [M]  /root/kvm-userspace/kernel/kvm_main.o
/root/kvm-userspace/kernel/kvm_main.c:1271: error: unknown field ‘name’
specified in initializer

Which makes sense, since the .name parameter doesn't exist pre-2.6.24.  I've
been trying to think of a way to work around it in external-module-compat.h, but
have so far been unsuccessful.  Does anyone have any good ideas?
