That patch to mem.c is borked.

If I compile 2.4.22-4um without CONFIG_DEV_ANON, I get this:

mem.c: In function `memory_devfs_register':
mem.c:728: error: `anon_fops' undeclared (first use in this function)
mem.c:728: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
mem.c:728: error: for each function it appears in.)
mem.c:728: error: initializer element is not constant
mem.c:728: error: (near initialization for `list[8].fops')
mem.c:728: error: initializer element is not constant
mem.c:728: error: (near initialization for `list[8]')


What is CONFIG_DEV_ANON and why would I want it?

David
