[linux-lvm] no such member 'de'

[linux-lvm] no such member 'de'

[urmk]

LVM 1.0.1rc4, Linux 2.2.19 stock kernel:

I applied the rawio patch for 2.2.18 (no errors, a few fuzzy offsets).
Configured LVM, ran make in the PATCHES dir.
Applied the newly made LVM patch.  Again, no errors, some fuzzy offsets.
Configured LVM support in the kernel.

Make fails, with:

cc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.2.19/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -D__SMP__ -pipe -fno-strength-reduce -m486 -malign-loops=2 -malign-jumps=2 -malign-functions=2 -DCPU=586   -c -o lvm.o lvm.c
lvm.c: In function `lvm_do_lv_create':
lvm.c:2192: structure has no member named `de'
lvm.c: In function `lvm_do_lv_remove':
lvm.c:2277: structure has no member named `de'
make[3]: *** [lvm.o] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.19/drivers/block'
make[2]: *** [first_rule] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.19/drivers/block'
make[1]: *** [_subdir_block] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.19/drivers'

It appears it's hardcoded to refer to the devfs entries, which don't exit in 
2.2.19 -- is this simply the final stage of dropping support for 2.2.19, or 
an oversight?

It's have been described.  Look for the thread "kernel 2.2.19 support".
I *hope* this will be repaired on next rc.
