[uml-devel] Compile error with 2.6.8 patch

[uml-devel] Compile error with 2.6.8 patch

[James Roper]

I got the following compile error with the latest 2.6.8.1-1 UML patch from the 
website:
arch/um/kernel/ksyms.c:90: error: redefinition of `__kcrctab_os_ioctl_generic'
arch/um/kernel/ksyms.c:76: error: `__kcrctab_os_ioctl_generic' previously 
defined here

Fixed it by removing the extra
EXPORT_SYMBOL(os_ioctl_generic);
at line 90 in ksyms.c

Yes, sorry, the fix is right, this bug is known, and is fixed in the 
incremental patches. It wasn't noticed on release because it does not show up 
when compiling without module support as Jeff Dike is used to do.
