[PATCH 00/44] Compat

[Arnaud Lacombe <lacombar@gmail.com>]

Hi Luis,

You will find in answer of this mail the first part of the compat upgrade I am
using to support a network-oriented module on kernel from 2.6.15 to 2.6.36.

All this code is available on my repository on github:

https://github.com/lacombar/linux-compat.git local

This repository also contains the second part I will post later concerning a
tentative to reduce namespace pollution when using the compat module. As it is
mostly mechanical, I will start another thread with a single proof of concept
patch and gather feedbacks :)

Comments welcome !

Thanks,
 - Arnaud
