The read_lock and read_unlock macros should not use such innocent variable
names like tmp because they have a high probability to clash with (part
of) the argument.

Andreas.

Thanks, I applied this patch for 2.5.  In the future, it would be nice
if you could send patches that apply with "patch -p1" and if you could
specify what kernel the patch is relative to.
